Perhaps the most interesting Exit Poll number comes from the CAMPAIGN CONTACT numbers...
Barack Obama, it is known now, turned off all protective controls on his website for online donations. To what end?
To allow unfettered dollars to come into the campaign from everywhere and anywhere!
This allowed the Obama campaign to raise unprecedented sums of money, from every conceivable source including overseas...but what did it gain him, besides ad time?
Well it gained him access to voters in an historic number of contacts. The exit polling shows that each campaign had about an 80% success rate on voters they contacted that the opponent did not contact. When both campaigns contacted the same voter it turned in McCain's favor by a 51 to 47 margin. Those who did not get contacted which was 60% of the voters they went slightly for Obama by a 50 to 48 margin...
But what is most telling and served most clearly by the MONEY RAISED is the vast difference in total of people contacted.
Obama contacted 7% more people than McCain contacted, a direct result of the vast sums of money raised...serviced by the very well oiled campaign. Great credit should be given to an exceptionally, and revolutionarey campaign model created by the Obama camp, but the vast sums of money affored advantages unequaled by the McCain campaign...
It is for others to discern the reality of illegal money gained and gamed by Obama, but the system failures will be ignored because the very people who are charged to illustrate the problems, the media, will ignore the problems as they did during the Campaign season...they got what they wanted, they got their president.
13% of the voters were contacted by Obama alone while only 6% by McCain, this is a tangible result of the oath violation of Campaign Public Funding by Obama that allowed for record sums of money to come into the campaign from everywhere.
Liberals and the Media will ignore the FUNDS and where they came from...but let us not forget, let us never forget it was a bought election. The rallies that took place around the globe did not take place because these folks care about American Politics but rather because they were allowed to influence American Politics.
