Say what you will about the presidential candidates, but public polls are cutting the 2012 presidential election as very close. So what if this election was being held in Europe? You don't have to take sides to speculate how other countries would vote. So we asked who the public thinks Europeans would vote for.
Political landscapes are always changing, but most respondents feel Europeans would go for Obama. Of course, some respondents noted that it's hard to lump together countries as diverse as Germany, Poland, Greece, Russia, and Sweden; but it's also hard to lump together fifty diverse states. Still, let's break it down a bit.
Europeans Speak
Sure, "the public" thinks Europe would vote for Obama, but what do Europeans think? And does it differ by country? Well, we didn't get votes for ever European country, but nearly all of the ones that did picked Obama. The only ones that didn't were Poland and Portugal. Overall, 88% of Europeans said they -- their continent, not the individual voter -- would pick Obama.
Liberals Are Sure of It
On the political front, there was actually a group more likely to say Europe was for Obama than Europeans were: Liberals. Nearly all liberal respondents felt Europe was pro-Obama, compared to just 60% of conservatives. Incidentally, this is the first political recap we've done where the majority of conservatives picked Obama.
Doubt From Young Adults
Usually, younger voters lean predominantly left, and this is especially true with college-aged voters. However, this time college-aged voters were one of the least likely age groups to say that Europe would pick Obama. They were still mostly convinced (74%), but people between the ages of 25 and 55 were much more likely.

See if you can use fact and logic to answer me one question. I'll type slow so you can understand. Why if Obamare is so good , does Obama , his wife and his precious girls never have to go on it ? Or any other of the democrat demigouges who pushed this lie on us have to go on it????? And why does it not go into effect right away ? I'll give you a hint on the last part...(Because it will ruin healthcare in america and Obama would not be re eleceted if the voters eyes were open to the actuall functioning of Obamacare)
Huh why ??? Answer the question or keep your ignorant superficial comments to yourself
"It only make you sound ignorant'
Stupidest statement I’ve ever heard.
Not making points, and not proving your statement is ignorant.
Damn, that’s dumb. LMAO.
Your statements up and down here on S.H. indicates you’re a raciest, and I see you’ve been calling people idiots and other things just because you don’t agree with them.
What a hypocrite.
What is sad is you don't even know how stupid a woman you really are.
Anybody with an I.Q. of 105 can see this with your pitiful replies here on S.H. and your racial worship of Obama, who is just another man or politician.
Well I have at least 30 times, mostly Western Europe, and there is an underling dislike and distain by them for Americans, he is telling you the truth, and all you can do is be blinded by Obama your messiah, and insult Mike.
I’ll bet you are most likely a Georgian, African American woman.
Also people that keep calling other people liars again, and again, are either mentally challenged or that's what they are,... liars.
