We asked, students voted
The Broadside Editor
On a survey we conducted on survey monkey, we asked COCC and OSU-Cascades students, five questions:
1) Have you decided which candidate for president you are going to vote for, or not?
2) Among the following candidates, who are you voting for?
3) What are the issues you are voting on?
4) Did the debates influence your candidate choice?
5) Is this your first time voting?
Here are a few of the results, with individual views displayed at the end.
