The exit polls on Prop 8 are very interesting. According to the poll, 69% of African-American voters support prop 8, opposed to under 50% for other races. Furthermore, the 30-64 age range is dead even 50/50, with 18-29 leaning no, and 65+ leaning yes. So the race essentially could be determined by whether more young or old voters get to the ballots. People with less than college degree's tend to lean yes, graduates lean no. The 6% of people who decided who to vote for in the last three days disproportionately leaned yes.
91% of people who's religion is listed as "none" voted no on prop 8. Rock on atheists.

on the mayoral race in Seattle... this is truly the game changer:
Broadhead (winning candidate consultant): And this campaign was an eye-opener for me. If you gave me the choice, next cycle, of having the vote of the immigrant and refugee community in Seattle … and having, basically, the downtown checkbook, that would be a no-brainer for me. The immigrant and refugee committee … delivered votes for us.

The Republicans laid out a wide spectrum of things that could have (should have) derailed this election for progressive leaders. This election is all the more amazing if only for that reason. In many of the states where the Democrats made electoral wins, the voters had to (figuratively) split their ballot across party platform on some divisive issue. Just astounding.
