Title: North Carolina -> Bob Barr polling at 5%
Post by: 240 is Back on July 02, 2008, 02:35:44 PM

This state is suddenly in play for Obama.  High african american population, he destroyed Hilary and Edwards there, and barr is now stealing 5% from McCain there.

And he'll be able to spend a lot of $ there, and mcCain won't.

Things are tight in Georgia right now as well.

Bob Barr is very popular there and could steal votes from Mccain there as well.

Does anyone know what percentage of the vote the libertarian party typically receives?

Bob Barrr isn't a Libertarian. He's a Republican. He voted for the Patriot Act.
