Obama Leads by Only 7 in Arkansas's Democratic Primary

The poll covers Arkansas’s Fourth Congressional District.

1:27 PM, May 15, 2012 • By MICHAEL WARREN

A new poll of Arkansas Democrats shows Barack Obama receiving support from only 45 percent of Democratic primary voters in Arkansas’s Fourth Congressional District, while 38 percent support his underfunded and relatively unknown primary challenger, Tennessee lawyer John Wolfe, Jr. Seventeen percent are undecided in the district poll.

In an interview with THE WEEKLY STANDARD, Wolfe said the poll results were “unbelievable” and said a defeat for Obama in the Arkansas primary would be “politically cataclysmic.”
 
“It says the momentum is good,” Wolfe said about the poll. “This is democracy in action."
 
Wolfe predicted that the voters would move his way in the final days before the May 22 primary, despite his shoestring campaign budget. “There’s not been a single TV ad. There’s not been a single radio ad,” he said.
 
Wolfe is also competing against Obama in Texas’s May 29 primary.

Yeah, the DNC will probably rewrite the rules to keep Mr. Wolfe out, but the tsunami is starting to generate . . .

Imagine had this been George Bush in 2004.

I nadin'ed it, and saw that with the exception of Oklahoma, where some guy named Bill Wyatt got 10 percent, and 4 percent in Louisiana, no declared candidate ever got more than 2 percent of the vote in any primary.  Bush got at least 85 percent of the vote in every state except NH, where there were 10 declared candidates.
