Majority of Allegheny prostitutes are on the Democratic side |
2008-10-31 |
John McCain and Barack Obama, if you're wooing a population of registered voters who are young, female and drawn to men in suits, then Allegheny County has 675 ladies ready to pull your lever. They're convicted streetwalkers, escorts and brothel babes collared in 2000 and from 2003-2006, uncovered by the Trib. Based on the prostitutes' voter registration cards, they're destined to become Obama girls in November. That's because 78 percent of them registered as Democrats. Countywide, Dems make up only about 62 percent of voters, according to the Division of Elections. |

#8 Since its unlikely he'll change the legality of Prostitution many of them legally make no income and would get a check back from Obama. Not a surprise how they would vote. |

#5 ...Allegheny County has 675 ladies ready to pull your lever. :) Someone has a sense of humor in the press. I can think of all sorts of other lines that could havealso been injected into this story. :) |

#3 Well, prostitution and solicitation isn't a felony in Pennsylvania, so they're still legitimate voters. And hey, they're used to getting screwed. |

#2 "Based on the prostitutes' voter registration cards, they're destined to become Obama girls in November." So, what was on their press credentials? |
