Could these statistics mean more webmasters would be voting for John Kerry?

Perhaps George Bush's Alexa ranking is lower because there are two places to get general information about him, the whitehouse.gov and georgewbush.com?

Another reminder, please DO NOT SAY who you are voting for or express any opinions regarding these candidates ability to be president of the United States.

well kerry's camp has the democratic internet team, which led to the gov of vermont going on a mad landslide with money and power. To bad it didnt mean anything when it came to electoral power. I dont see this as a sign of voting, I see it as the Kerry camp has DEANS people in his fold and they are now using their smarts to help Kerrys online campaign. Bush is relying on the main stream media.

i disagree... kerry has the national media in his pocket... Either Bush's people dont believe they need Internet presence or they just dont know how to do it.

I could do it for them... for a price :)

It looks like the GOP needs to hire an SEO.

poorman i never said he didnt have them in his pocket, what I said is Dean has given the Democratic party a new powerfull online tactic, that the republicans dont use or even know about in comparison. Problem with Dean was all the internet power, and individual money doesnt mean anything when it comes to electoral votes.

Look how many more pages JohnKerry.com has indexed in Google than GeorgeWBush.com.

A while ago when I looked the alexa rating was the other way around. Also quite interesting that sites such as Miniclip.com are visited more than these...

I'd think that people would go on John Kerry's site to see what he was about. They know everything about Bush. That's why the difference in traffic rank imho.
