so apparently african americans really, really like fringe third-party candidates. read here.
seems that a number of cleveland precincts voted much more heavily for the libertarian and constitution party whackos than ever before--when nader received a total of 8 votes in two counties, this year Peroutka and Badnarik together got 378 votes! Wow!
"The same pattern showed up in 10 Cleveland precincts in which Badnarik and Peroutka received nearly 700 votes between them. In virtually all those precincts, Kerry's vote was lower than Al Gore's in 2000, even though there was a record turnout in the black community this time, and even though blacks voted overwhelmingly for Kerry."
