Electoral Consequences of the Rapture
Public Policy Polling has been attempting to determine what the consequences would be if the Rapture occurs before the 2012 election, but without actually ending the world.
While only 11% of those polled believed that The Rapture will occur in their lifetimes, the majority of these are avid supporters of Sarah Palin. They also tend to believe that they themselves will be taken up in the Rapture. Therefore, should the Rapture occur, Palin’s electoral prospects will take a big hit. Those who would remain on earth tend to support Obama, who would win in a landslide.
Unless, of course, he were Raptured too. As 44% of voters believe he would be.
It’s nice to see such serious polling in this electoral cycle.
