Pasadena Democratic registration is on the rise
Nathan McIntire wrote a story for today's paper about county-wide voter registration, and includes the Pasadena numbers:
As of Monday, the Pasadena United Democratic Headquarters on Lake Avenue significantly had out-paced its GOP rival in voter registration by signing up about 4,300 voters since July, said Mark Gonzales, the lead field coordinator.
At the Republican headquarters on Green Street, office manager Jennifer Soto said volunteers there had registered about 340 voters since August.
No big surprise considering that Pasadena leans left, but remember also there are new voter registrations. Pasadena already has a lot of registered Democrats, so getting 4,300 more is fairly significant.
The city does have a very enthusiastic Republican crowd- I attended both the Democratic and Republican headquarters for the vice-presidential debate and the turnout was about the same.
But I do have to give the edge on the cardboard copy battle to Democrats- the picture on the left is the same as the cardboard copy McCain at the GOP headquarters- frankly, he looks kind of slumped over and depressed in this photo
