The figures show a continued decline in registered Republicans. Republicans now make up 30.3 percent of registered voters, down from nearly 33 percent before the last presidential primary.This is a weird quote. What is the 'last presidential primary?' I'm assuming it isn't the one three weeks ago in Maryland. Is it the 2008 California primary? Republicans had 31.4% of registration before that vote. That's not "nearly 33 percent." They did have it at 34.1% in 2007, but that's not "nearly 33 percent" either.
The percentage of those registered as Democrats remained unchanged at 43.5 percent.
This is perplexing too. Democrats were 43.63% of the voters in January and are now 43.49%. Republicans dropped from 30.36% to 30.31%.
Am I wrong here? is a 0.14% drop much smaller than a .05% drop? What am I missing?
