Campaign Results

If you want an easy way to transmit tonight's to students tomorrow, go to Yahoo's excellent "Political Dashboard" site. . .At Political Dashboard you can show tonight's results for the Democratic and Republican primaries in the Chesapeake--Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. . .I've been using the site in my classes during the campaign and it is very easy for the students to see the results and basic demographic breakdown of the voting. . .The "Election 2008" site (CNN) is superior in that it os more detailed. . .For example, CNN breaks down the results by either county or Congressional Districts, but its graphic presentation is inferior. . .For a quick summary, I recommend "Political Dashboard"; for a more detailed look at the results use "Election 2008". . .For all you cheeseheads: Wisconsin decides next Tuesday--the land of the Progressive tradition (see: Fighting Bob LaFollette) and the birthplace of the GOP: Ripon, Wisconsin (1854). . .drfaust
