Gore and Bradley Appeal to Sharply Different Constituencies Within the Democratic Party
Vice President Al Gore and former New Jersey Senator Bill Bradley, the two major contenders for the Democratic nomination for president, appeal to extraordinarily different types of Democrats, a new special Gallup Poll analysis shows. Gore's voters tend to be traditional Democrats -- older, living in the South, minorities, those with lower levels of education and income, and women. Bradley's constituency is skewed strongly towards certain geographic areas of the country -- particularly the Northeast -- and also towards independents who tend to vote Democratic, whites, men, and those with higher levels of education and income.
