"When Cannon wins, and he will 53% to 47%..."
(Read my posting history for my opinion on who will win, I'm sick of writing it.)
But if that happens, it'd be pretty big considering Cannon got 58% in 2004.
If the anti immigration lobby which has thrown everything but the kitchen sink at Cannon for 4 years doesn't get Cannon this time and Cannon wins then this cannot be spun bythose forces as anything but a defeat for their cause. This is the first real race where is a battle of ideas among the Republicans. This race will be far more of an indicator than Bilray race was
Jacobs had a lot of help from outside groups running radio ads in a high decible campaign and is facing one opponent as opposed to 2 in '04. It doesn't surprise me that his vote percentage will likely be down some over 04.
