One Day Left…Are You Still an Undecided Voter?
I have made my choice and will cast my vote tomorrow morning for President of the United States. But there are still many out there who have yet to come to a final conclusion on their vote for either Barack Obama or John McCain.
Less than 24 hours before the presidential election, Kevin Sheen is one of these people who has yet to decide who will get his vote.
From CNN:
“I’m actually still wrestling with moral issues,” says the 29-year-old registered Democrat, who voted for George W. Bush in 2004.
Sheen is one of the 5 percent of American voters who are either undecided or could change their mind before Election Day.
It’s not unusual for a small percentage of Americans to be undecided in the final hours before casting their votes.
In 2004, a CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll released two days before the election showed 3 percent of those surveyed were still undecided. In 2000, 4 percent of those surveyed said they were undecided two days before the election.
This year, the most recent CNN/Opinion Research Corporation Poll shows the number of undecideds is much smaller.
“In our last poll, we only had about 1 percent who said they were undecided and only about 4 percent who said they might consider changing their minds. So there is hardly anyone left who could be considered undecided, or even persuadable,” says CNN polling director Keating Holland.
Sheen, of Lincoln, Nebraska, says his vote is coming down to one issue: abortion. Sheen says he’s “definitely pro-life” and he’s trying to decide whether Democrat Barack Obama or Republican John McCain is more in line with his views.
“Neither of them have the track record I would like in a political candidate. So at this point, it’s me sort of deciding upon, who do I think will be the best representation for if something is able to happen with the issue of abortion,” he says. iReport: Still undecided? What gives?
