The Wall Street Journal (10/22, A4, Harwood) reports in
its "Washington Wire" column, "A 52% majority of African-Americans
worry it's 'very' or 'somewhat' likely their votes won't be counted,
while 20% of whites do.
But
blacks express higher election interest. Journal/NBC pollsters Peter
Hart and Bill McInturff say Kerry's 83% support may understate his
final total; Gore got 90% in 2000. Bush's party worries more about
fraud. Some 44% of Republicans say it is very or somewhat likely that
Americans who are ineligible will vote anyway; only 28% of Democrats
voice that concern. Voters overall split, 48%-47%, on the likelihood
that computer technology will bring more corruption or miscounting."
