When a state like Oklahoma, which has not been carried by Democrats since at 1964, has a greater Democrat turnout, it is probable that 2008 will be a poor year for the Republicans.
In Alabama, I think the blacks came out in droves here for Obama. He beat Hillary up here.
The Dems had higher primary turnouts in 1980, so I wouldn’t worry just yet.
These high turnout numbers are not new voters, they are the same people that now decided to make sure their candidate is the nominee.
The Democrats are splitting wide over Hillary & Obama. HIspancis will not vote for Obama and are turning out in primaries to get Hillary on the ticket. Blacks will not go to the polls in November if they think Obama was cheated of the nomination and are turning out in mass to make sure he is the nominee. Means nothing in the long run; these are the sure voters anyway.
