Do you consider yourself a Republican, Democrat or Independent?

Today's Political Insider has a more recent poll that is the subject of a post that follows, but one reported in the current issue of James is very interesting. It notes that contrary to popular belief, Georgians are not dominated by one particular political party.

The article attributes the Legislature and Congress being heavily republican "because political lines for various districts were drawn in a manner that benefits GOP candidates. However, Georgia has a large block of voters who identify themselves as 'independent.' This critical bloc has recently chosen Republican candidates over Democratic candidates, but is always up for grabs in any statewide contest."

In response to the question "do you consider yourself a Republican, Democrat, or Independent," the results were as follows:

No Answer 4%
Democrat 31%
Independent 32%
Republican 33%
