Obama Wins! (In Azeroth, Too)

Yesterday's national election results are pretty decisive, showing that the United States clearly chose Barack Obama to be the next President. A couple of days ago, we saw the Machinima.com video showing a brief poll in Azeroth, and we decided to let the Project Lore viewers have their voices be heard. The results from our Survey of how Azeroth would vote in the election came out quite clear. 69% of voters in our survey voted for Obama, 23% for McCain, and 8% for a third party candidate. Below you'll find a breakdown of all of the races, every one of them showing an Obama victory.
On to class breakdown. As seen below, Obama took every class' vote.

So, it appears that Azeroth has spoken, too. Remember that we only surveyed a small, non scientific population, so these results are just for fun.

You would have thought Warriors would vote for McCain with his war record.
end of the day whats the difference men are men they always crave power lol
Yes WE CAN!!!!!! lol
Heh, Rogues were the biggest McCain supporters. Must have been the whole "maverick" angle.
Great! I think these results reflect the real world a bit. :)
I find it a little funny that the independent candidate came close to beating McCain, one of the main party candidates, in several places. For example, look at the Druid chart...
Im suprised us dwarves didnt vote republican. (We're known to like guns and beer i.e. rednecks) :D
lol why are tourens the most indepndent doesnt make sance to me that big strong bulls are more shy than little ghones lol little guys rule go ghomes

LITTLE GUYS RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama would win in a landslide base off of WoW players votes alone.
From a McCain supporter perspective... good thing this isn't the official voting records (of course those weren't too pretty either =( )
Suprisingly, in my main's guild, people were overwhelmingly por-McCain... including me.
We were doing Kara, but the election didn;t distract us (problem...?)
I am surprised the paladins were not as democratic as the priests I mean we both heal with the power of jesus >.<
