Elementary School Kids Like Obama

Nearly 1 million elementary school kids across 50 states were asked to make their decision in a mock election recently. The results?

In the mock election, Obama snagged all the coastal states and dominated in the South, earning a total of 477 electoral votes. McCain nabbed the Dakotas, most of the Midwest — including Utah — and a solid belt of states stretching from Oklahoma to West Virginia.

I wish I'd been able to participate in something like this when I was young. Of course, I get to participate in the real thing now, so I guess it's all good.
