News from the Votemaster

Here is more polling data. The first election, the Iowa caucuses on Jan. 3, 2008, is very unstable. On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton is a bit ahead, but either Barck Obama or John Edwards could yet win that one. The Republican side is also muddy, with Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee contending for first place. Huckabee has come out of nowhere to now have a real chance of winning Iowa. His main problem is: "What next?" He is not doing well at all in New Hampshire, which comes next. Iowa is full of religious conservatives who seem to be flocking to Huckabee, but New Hampshire is full of crusty yankees who are more interested in balancing budgets than banning abortions. The main effect of a Huckabee win in Iowa could be to weaken Mitt Romney and thus help Rudy Giuliani, but who knows.

Another factor is that Iowa voters tend not to make up their minds until after Christmas. No doubt at family gatherings all over the state, politics will be topic A. But between Christmas and the caucuses, there is not time for much polling, so the results could be a big surprise.

Still something else to consider is the way the Iowa caucuses are conducted. In a primary, you go in, vote, and go home. Caucuses are different, at least the Democratic caucuses (the Republican ones are more like primaries). In the Democratic caucuses, each candidate is assigned a corner of the room and caucus goers come in and gravitate towards the Clinton corner, the Obama corner, the Edwards corner, etc. Undecideds can try out various corners or stand in the middle of the room like homeless people. Given how many Democratic candidates there are, the caucuses should be held in octagonal rooms, but in the absence of such rooms, two rectangular rooms can be used. The people in each clump talk about their candidate. In some caucuses they also elect a speaker to pitch their candidate to the plenary group.

After the meetings in the corners, everyone assembles in a plenary session. Often the elected speakers from each group then get a few minutes to hawk their candidates, after which time, a straw vote is taken. Any candidate deemed not viable (which usually means getting less than 15% of the vote) is eliminated, and people go back to their corners again. People whose candidate has been eliminated can shop around for a new candidate and voters can also switch.

After more talking, everyone assembles in a plenary session again and a final vote is taken. If a candidate now gets x% of the vote, he or she gets x% of the delegates to the county convention. Finally, the actual delegates are chosen. At the county convention, the process is repeated and delegates are chosen to the district convention, which chooses delegates to the state convention. Here the delegates to the national convention are chosen. The process is a bit cumbersome, but extremely democratic.

As you might imagine, not all voters want to spend an evening caucusing even at the precinct level, so turnout is light, often 15% of the eligible voters. The result is that a tiny fraction of a tiny state gets to decide who goes to the county conventions and the national press reports this as if the election is all over but the shouting. This year the New Hampshire primary is only five days later, so no matter what happens in Iowa, all candidates have a quick second shot at it.

Here is the latest set of polls. The data is available as a .csv file.
