At this point, there is little significant difference in the propensity to vote early between the Obama supporters and the McCain supporters interviewed in the aggregated sample of all interviews conducted from last Friday through Wednesday (among whom an average of 9% said they had already voted).
Not really. I think you are misreading the poll. Obama and McCain supporters are equally likely to vote early. However, it does not say anything about the numbers of those supporters being equal. In fact the last gallop daily tracking poll showed a 50%-42% advantage for Obama among Registered voters. So yes 10% of Obama supporters are voting early and 9% of McCain's supporters, but Obama supporters are still out pacing McCain supporters simply because there are more Obama supporters. This is reflected in a SUSA poll of early voters taken several days ago which showed an Obama lead in this catagory.
PLUS, in this state anyway (Colorado), they are not counting any early votes until Nov. 4. So unless this is an exit poll, it's meaningless re: who people are voting for.
Wow, and if the communist party tries to disenfranchise the military vote again................
