The first chart is total votes (those at the Washington Briefing and those voting online). The second chart is only those attending the WB in person.
This is a good demonstration of why online polls aren't reliable. Looks like both the Romney camp and the Paul camp were voting a lot more heavily online than in person.
I think the onsite poll is the one that gives us an idea about where this particular value organization stands. It appears that Huck smoked everyone.
Still to be determined: how much the leadership and activists of this and other values organizations reflect evangelicals as a whole.
Notice that Brownback got 297 votes after dropping out of the race. Looks like some Brownbackers didn’t hear the news?
Actually, it looked like Romney won the 'live' vote overwhelming at the Family Values convention, but Huckabee won overwhelmingly in the online voting.
While some congrats should go to Huckabee for energizing his online supporters, Romney is the one who got overwhelmingly support from the actual event.
It also begs the question of WHERE THE HECK are these pollsters getting Republicans who say they prefer Guliani.
Personally, I know one Rudy supporter out of hundreds of Republicans I talk to near Philadelphia.
And this particular Republican has no issues in which he believes. In fact, he doesn't like church going Republicans, he says.
He simply wants to win.
