And if 84% voted for Clinton and 91% are voting for Obama, isn't that a statistical difference? That 7% probably could have made a great deal of difference to John Kerry or Al Gore.
I know you in particular never said they are stupid, but many have said so. Many people vote because someone they know is voting a certain way and they persuade them to go along. Besides, I can't really trust your unofficial poll, since your sample size is probably tiny and subject to extreme variance.
