Here are some additional results from the Presidential Vote
poll. For this posting, I have excluded from consideration
all votes except those for Mondale and Reagan. Below are
some breakdowns by candidate and the demographics.

It would appear, informally speaking, that Mondale has the edge
with the women on the net. One thing I found strange was the poor
representation of women in the total vote. Perhaps this was a
function of the groups to which the vote invitations were posted,
net.general and net.politics. Maybe I will call for another
vote after the Rep. convention and post to a larger number of
groups, such as net.singles and net.women.
