"Edwards said he must finish at least third in the Jan. 27 New Hampshire
primary, where polls show Dean leading Sen. John. F. Kerry (Mass.), a fellow
New Englander. A week later, on Feb. 3, Edwards will face what he acknowledged
will be the most critical early test of his campaign, one he said will determine
whethere he will survive deeper into the nominating process.
'Oh, I need to win South Carolina,' he said of the first primary in his
native South.'" (Edward Walsh, The Washington Post, November 12,

All in all, Kerry won five states on February 3rd, Clark won one and
Edwards won one. Dean goes winless but accumulated a few more delegates
in Arizona and New Mexico. Braun,
Gephardt
and Lieberman have all dropped out of the race.
"Former Vermont governor Howard Dean vowed yesterday to stay in the
Democratic presidential race even if he goes winless in the seven states
holding primaries Tuesday, but pledged that he will not take his candidacy
to the convention simply to 'prove a point' if he falls insurmountably behind
in the battle for delegates" (John F. Harris and Jonathan Finer,

Michigan Democratic Presidential Caucus
"Next month, voters in the Michigan Democratic primary will have
the option of casting their votes from their homes over the Internet. Critics
of such voting raise the possibilities of fraud, privacy violations, vote
buying and coercion.
But the sharpest critique of the Michigan plan came from the Rev. Al
Sharpton, a Democratic candidate for president, who called it a "high-tech
poll tax."
"If someone can vote in the warmth of their living room, but a grandmother
has to go down four flights of stairs and into the cold," he said,
"that's not an even playing field."
People with Internet access at home do tend to be richer and whiter than
those who do not. And the Supreme Court has ruled that making polling places
in the physical world inconvenient for black voters can violate the law.

Does that same analysis apply to Internet voting, which supplements rather
than displaces traditional voting? Legal experts say that the question is
an open one but that Mr. Sharpton's point might well have legal force.
"If you're trying to make turnout as easy as possible, it's a good
thing," Prof. Richard L. Hasen of Loyola Law School said of Internet
voting. "If you're trying to ensure equality of access,'' he added,
''you have to take some additional steps" to make sure it does not
disproportionately benefit one group.
Heather K. Gerken, a law professor at Harvard, also noted the value of
leaving home to vote. In what she called an increasingly isolated society,
she said she would allow Internet voting, but only in public places."

"Democrats Wesley Clark and John Edwards said Sunday they will not
be deterred by John Kerry's decisive wins in Michigan and Washington state
and will stay in the presidential race indefinitely.
Clark told CNN's "Late Edition" that he expected to do well
in contests in Tennessee and Virginia on Tuesday, and in Wisconsin on Feb.
17. But even if he didn't win in any of those states, Clark pledged to remain
in the race at least through the March 2 "Super Tuesday" primaries,
including in California, Ohio and New York.
...In separate interviews on "Fox New Sunday" and ABC's "This
Week," Edwards noted that some 75 percent of delegates to the Democratic
National Convention will be up for grabs after the Wisconsin primary.
"I view this very much as a long-term process, and we're in this
for the long term," said Edwards, adding that he also expected to do
well in Tennessee and Virginia.
"My hope and expectation is to finish in the top two in these two
states, then to go on to Wisconsin and do well, where we've been campaigning,"
the North Carolina senator added." (The Washington Post, February

Census 2000, The Washington Post, February 15,
2004
With 100% of precincts reporting: Kerry received 40% of the vote
and 30 delegates, Edwards received 34% of the vote and 24 delegates, Dean
received 18% of the vote and 13 delegates, and Kucinich received 3% of the
vote and 0 delegates.
"With John Edwards' strong-though-losing showing in Wisconsin, the
Democratic contest will clearly last at least until the Super-Primary on
March 2. But, Kerry has still won 15 of 17 battles, with Edwards having
captured just one state: his native South Carolina. Moreover, the ground
is more fertile for Kerry than Edwards on March 2: the ten states voting
are mainly Northern/Western and liberal, with the prominent exception of
Georgia: CA, CT, GA, MD, MA, MN, NY, OH, RI, and VT. Yet even in the Peach
State, Kerry has a powerful weapon: former U.S. Senator Max Cleland. Most
Democrats are still furious about his defeat for reelection in November
2002, and they may be inclined to listen to him now.
With Dean sidelined and the other serious candidates now out, and Sharpton
and Kucinich mere sideshows as always, the showdown for the Democratic nomination
is between Kerry and Edwards. This is what Edwards has always wanted: a
one-on-one, mano a mano fight. But, it cannot be the way Edwards had hoped
it might be. This is not one-on-one, but a one-and-a-half candidate finale.
And the whole almost always beats the half.
History tells us that Wisconsin has seen several close presidential elections--both
primary and general--so this recent result should be viewed in perspective.
To that end, the Crystal Ball reminds you of three of the closest contests:
first, Bill Clinton's defeat of CA Gov. Jerry Brown in 1992 by 21,000 votes.
Next up is Jimmy Carter's surprise primary win over Mo Udall in 1976 by
7,500 votes. Lastly--and closest--is Al Gore's 2000 defeat of George W.
Bush in the general election, where the margin rested at a mere 5,700 votes.
For the moment, though, the Crystal Ball celebrates the extension of
the campaign for two more weeks, not unlike students who welcome snow days.
And that's the real reason John Edwards is getting what he wants. Every
print reporter, TV newsman, political analyst, and electoral junkie--INCLUDING
The Crystal Ball--wished hard for a longer primary season, Terry McAuliffe
and his frontloading be damned! Hooray for the contrarian voters of the
Badger State!" (Larry Sabato's Crystal Ball, February 18, 2004) |
