Due to few absences of the class, the total number of people taking the exit polls was 22. The results were clearly half and half. Two fifths of the African Americans voted for Bright and three fifths of the African Americans voted for Norton. Seven out of 12 Asians voted for Norton. (The two Caucasians who voted were the presidential candidates themselves.) From only glancing and analyzing the first question results, the answer to who will be our next president is an enigma because the first, second and third poll results leaned towards Norton. Everything is in the hands of the electoral votes. I, as a poll taker, voted for Bright and because of the tie of the votes, I predict Andrew Bright will be our next President for 2012.
Following rights for homosexuals, abortion and illegal immigrants were the other two issues between Democrats and Republicans. The two parties were divided on these issues according to the surveys. However, Manisha Banga and Kyle Norton, two candidates for Democrats, captivated most of the people during the presidential debates on the two issues. The second poll was only given to a sample of people, a representative group, in the population and even with 13 people, the winners were predictable. With the results, I predict the winners of the primary elections: Banga OR Norton for Democratic Party and Bright for Repbulican Party.
The first poll was taken on September 24, 2012. For the first question, "Is bullying/belittling/hating homosexuals morally right?", 23 people chose "Yes." The reason why the first poll is based on homosexuality is because according to the survey and demographics in Brunswick's 3A nation, civil rights for homosexual people is one of the main issues between the Democrats and Republicans. All the people said, "Yes" to the first one; however among the people who took the polls, there are Republicans (who supposedly oppose civil right for homosexual people). For the second question, "Is including religious beliefs with morals wrong?", 5 people chose "yes" and 18 people chose "no". The first question is biased towards Democrats and the second question is biased towards Republicans.
