Roark: Pendulum Swinging For Idaho Demos

While President-elect Obama took 36 percent of Idaho’s vote, that was far better than John Kerry’s 30 percent in 2004 and Al Gore’s 28 percent in 2000 and clearly demonstrates a growth trend for Idaho Democrats. Obama’s vote total in Idaho was 55,000 votes greater than John Kerry’s total in 2004 while John McCain gathered about 7000 fewer votes than George W. Bush just four years ago. Most significantly of all, 43 of 44 Idaho counties voted more Democratic in the 2008 presidential contest than in 2004/Keith Roark, Idaho Demo chairman. More here .
