The purpose of the first post is not to endorse any political candidate or political party, so no endorsement is stated or implied. I am not saying who would serve the consituents better,only reviewing the election results in an attempt to make an educated guess of whether the outcome might have been different if circumstances had been altered.

Purpose

The purpose of this blog is took look at numbers that have an impact on politics. Some of these items are election results, campaign finance information, polling data and whatever numbers seem relevant.
The focus will mostly be Delaware, but numbers from other areas and national numbers may also be the focus.
Numbers in politics represent behavior, so the numbers may tells us something about how some people may be behaving. Of course the numbers will always be open to interpretation.
