Early Voting Exit Polls Results From 2008 Election

Early voting exit polls show that economy is the top concern for voters.

It is reported that 6 in 10 voters named the economy as the most important issue facing the country. This is not a surprise if you think about the state of the financial meltdown.

The early voting exit polls also found that 4 out of 10 people said they were worse off financially now than four years ago. Only 1/3 of the people said they are about the same.

The good point is that many believe that after the 2008 election, both the economy and their financial situation will improve.

It also found that Barack Obama supporters are voting much earlier than McCain supporters, which is showing in the polls. This is maybe good news for the Democrats. The number of African American early voters is also running about 8 points greater than in the 2004 elections, with the majority of early voting exit polls showing they are voting for Barack Obama.

The exit polls also found many people are voting for the first time this year!
