Paul, Clinton, Baldwin lead write-ins in three Pennsylvania counties

November 25th, 2008

Two Pennsylvania newspapers detail presidential write-in votes in their areas. The Bucks County Courier Times writes that Rep. Ron Paul led Sen. Hillary Clinton 135 to 119 in Bucks County, and 322 to 289 in Montgomery County. Receiving the “third highest amount is Constitution Party nominee Chuck Baldwin, who nabbed 60 votes in Bucks, which roughly matches the number of county residents registered as Constitution Party members.” Others drawing presidential votes in the two counties include Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Sen. Bob Casey Jr., Stephen Colbert, Lou Dobbs, Harrison Ford, Newt Gingrich, Al Gore, Paris Hilton, Mike Huckabee, Toby Keith, Alan Keyes, Gov. Sarah Palin, Colin Powell, Mitt Romney, Fred Thompson, and Jesse Ventura.

York County showed similar results, according to the York Dispatch. Paul, “who performed strongly in York County” in the Republican presidential primary, received 423 votes, Clinton 291, and Baldwin 120. In addition, “Homer Simpson got one write-in vote, Jesus got six, Bill Cosby got four and Joe the Plumber got two. Seven people voted for ‘none of the above.’”
