Post 8: Due 2/9 or 10

February 9th is the date of the New Hampshire primary.  After there is a clear winner of the primary answer the following prompt:

Based on the results of the Iowa Caucus and the New Hampshire Primary, what type of candidates do the voters want for the general election?  Why?  What do these results mean?  Are these results representative of the country's views?  Why or why not?

You have until midnight on Wed 2/10.  I look forward to reading your insights.  ;)

Post 7 - Due 1/20

It's time to make predictions...

Who will win the Iowa caucus (2/1)?
Who will win the New Hampshire primary (2/9)?

You can answer for either the Democrats but must answer for the Republicans.  You can answer for one or both states.  You will need a minimum of 3 pieces of evidence for this post.  I suggest pollingreport.com, the Des Moines Register and the New Hampshire Union Leader as sources to consult.

I look forward to reading your predictions and seeing who is right.  :)

Blog #1 for Tri 2

On January 3rd the primary/caucus season officially begins with the Iowa Caucus and we will see whose hard work will be paying off and winning big. This is the earliest we have ever had the primary/caucus season start and it'll be interesting to see how it affects the Republican candidates.

Your question is: Who will win the Iowa caucus and will he/she then go on to win the nomination? Use evidence to support your prediction.

Due Friday 12/16 BEFORE the school day starts. You will be drawing a classmate to respond to for your 1/6 post which will be AFTER we know the results. It'll be fun to see who is right & wrong on their predictions! Good luck.
