It is interesting to compare Bridgewater's historical voting for President
2008 President: McCain = 5849 vs. Obama = 5873 [12080 out of about 15000 voters]
2004 President: Bush = 5529 vs. Kerry = 5589 [11290 out of 14404 voters]
2000 President: Bush = 4114 vs. Gore = 5925 [ 10070 out of 12640 voters]
The past two elections, Bridgewater's votes to the Democrat nominee barely edged out the Republican. In 2004, Kerry edged Bush by 60 votes and tonight Obama edged McCain by 24 votes.
