The Latest on Obama
Chicago Tribune | Eric Zorn's Notebook:
The Copley News yesterday released the results of what is likely to be the last pre-election poll.
The news chain's survey of 400 likely Democratic primary voters and 400 likely Republican primary voters showed pretty much what every other poll has been showing -- big leads for Democratic state Sen. Barack Obama and Republican investor/teacher Jack Ryan:
Democrats
Barack Obama, 37%
Dan Hynes, 18%
Blair Hull, 16%
Maria Pappas, 8%
Gery Chico, 5%
Nancy Skinner, 1%
Joyce Washington, 1%
(undecided, 14%)
[don't care about the Republicans]
Eric is also doing a prediction contest on the final figures. His column is a treat to read. Plus he's a great contra/square dance caller (I have danced to his calling many times here. If I can get my s*hit together by 9:00, will post my predictions and enter his contest. If not, not.
