There are a number of threads running on the election, and they have interesting and useful information demographic information embedded in them that is difficult to cull.    I don't have the capability to moderate a thread, but would like for this one to be limited to demographic information from polls that can perhaps paint a picture of how American voters perceive the the condition of the country on a number of fronts by various demographic characteristics, and might provide some insight into why people choose the candidates that they do.

I would strongly like for this thread to be a reporting of data from election year polls and surveys that appear to be reputable- and not a discussion of, or commentary on the two parties, the candidates, or of posters' opinions.

I hope y'all police yourselves, but if you don't-well then you don't.

Next post will be a link to the original article and an extraction of the data from the poll.
