Of course, there’s no way of knowing what will happen to Barack Obama and Mike Huckabee next week or during any of the following primaries. Hillary, we’re guessing, has a lot of tricks left up her sleeve, and McCain and Romney are sure to make a surge in less evangelical states like New Hampshire, Michigan, and Nevada. But, if the thus-far-imaginary Huckabee-Obama contest were to one day take place, the Huffington Post has poll data from before the caucus. SurveyUSA polled voters in a handful of swing (and non-swing) states about a potential general election between the Illinois senator and the former Arkansas governor. Here are some of the more interesting results:
Obama gets:
Wisconsin by 16%
Iowa by 13%
Oregon by 11%
Virginia by 9%
Minnesota by 5%
Ohio by 1%
Huckabee gets:
Kentucky by 13%
Missouri by 2%
New Mexico by 1%
Now, that’s not all of the potential swing states, and in general it doesn’t really mean anything. But you were kinda wondering, weren’t you?
