Most national polls find Barack Obama holding a solid -- yet narrowing -- lead over John McCain in the final push before the election.
But a recent poll of automobile owners shows a different reality.
McCain leads Obama 47 percent to 46 percent among vehicle owners -- well within the margin of error -- according to a report published by the automotive price guide Kelley Blue Book.
The report, which appeared Monday on the McClatchy-Tribune's Web site, found that McCain is favored among owners of domestic and luxury vehicles -- like Buick, Dodge, and Ford -- while Obama leads among import owners -- like Saab and Honda.
Fifty-two percent of Lexus, BMW, and Lincoln owners, for example, prefer McCain while 61 percent of Subaru owners favor Obama, according to the McClatchy-Tribune.
The report found that heavy sales of those vehicles correlate with states where a particular candidate dominates in the polls, Kelley Blue Book's senior vice president of marketing and analytics Rick Wainschel told the Hartford Courant.
So mom and dad I guess this would explain the Volkswagen sitting in the drive way?
But wait I am the one that disproves the rule..... I drive a Honda but as of today I am still voting for Mccain. I guess that's cause if I had my choice I would still be driving a Cadillac... I miss my Cady :(
