From POS.org:
The West proved to be a pivotal battleground n the 2008 elections, both at the presidential level and in the success of Democrats to boost their majorities in the House and Senate. Yet, current polling data seems to indicate that Western voters may be laggards when it comes to their support of all things Democrat.
Mood of the West
The mood of Western voters has not rebounded as quickly or to the extent it has in other parts of the country. While the nation’s mood improved from 11% right direction/76% wrong track pre-election to 31% right direction/63% wrong track in current data, Western voters only registered a 23% right direction/67% wrong track – a significant difference.
