Republicans Voted For Obama?
I enjoyed reading the angst from the whining and crying Lefties in their misreporting and overblown reactions over the issue of Republicans crossing over to vote for Hillary Clinton in Texas and Ohio. Oh, how offended the Left is about this - though the Left conveniently and selectively forgets they did the same thing with John McCain in 2000.
So it was with great interest the Liberal blogs and sites were doing their usual knee-jerk reaction. Instead of spending five minutes researching for a fact, no, what they reported was the Republicans voted for Hillary. Oh, really? Really?
Let's look at CNN exit polling from Texas. The below chart can be found by clicking on the preceding link, under the sub-heading Primaries and from there exit polling for Texas.
A majority of Texas Republicans voted for Obama by 53% compared to Hillary's 46%. Did Republicans crossover and vote for Hillary? It sure doesn't look that way according to the CNN chart, does it?
62% of White
According to CNN Exit polling, Clinton received more support from Independents than Republicans:
10 percent of the voters in Ohio's Democratic Primary identified themselves as Republican, along with 22 percent who said they were independents. It was the same story in Texas: 10 percent of the voters in the Democratic primary identified themselves as Republican, , along with 25 percent who said they were independents.
So much for the LefTard Conspiracy Theory that Republicans voted in huge numbers for Hillary. But why should we expect the Left acknowledge facts and reality when wearing Tin Foil Hats and conspiracy theories are so much more fun?
