[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 1057155, member: 12952"] CNN Concerned About Low-Voting Obama Counties [h=2]CNN was gobsmacked over a county in Texas that saw an extremely low voter turnout for Barack Obama in the last election. On the other hand, the cable network showed no interest in the Ohio and Pennsylvania counties that had [I]zero[/I] votes for Mitt Romney.[/h] On Friday, November 16, CNN aired an "expose" of sorts about the low Obama votes that occurred in King County, Texas and took their cameras south to find out why so few voters there wanted to vote for the President. Correspondent Gary Tuchman and the CNN crew wanted to find out if everyone in King County were racist. All Mr. Tuchman's questions were meant to elicit examples of the King County resident's backwards attitudes and racism. CNN was simply outraged that only 3.4 percent of King County's voters thought well enough of Barack Obama to vote for him on Election Day. It was a travesty. [/QUOTE]
