Obama leads McCain among low-wage workers

Excerpted from Reuters,  08-04-08

Obama holds a two-to-one lead over McCain among low-wage workers (nearly a quarter of U.S. adults, earning $27,000 or less) … Obama’s advantage is due largely to overwhelming support from African Americans and Hispanics.

The group views Obama as the more empathetic candidate and the one who most closely shares their values …  92% of African Americans chose Obama as the candidate most concerned with their problems; not a single black respondent said that about McCain, the Post said.

Most of the respondents were pessimistic about the impact of the November 4 election. A majority of those polled, both white and minority, said that no matter who won their personal financial situation would be unlikely to change, it said.
