DeKalb County Facts
Filed in US District Court, March 2003

1. Republican turnout in the August open Democratic Georgia Fourth District
Primary was 44.6%; Democratic turnout was 32.2%.

2. The county (at least the precincts in this congressional district) is
70/30 Democratic, but for the August open Democratic primary the electorate
was 60/40 Democratic.

3. Majette won 97% of the GOP vote and 33% of the Democratic vote.

4. 65% of Majette’s vote came from Republican voters.

5. 97% of McKinney’s vote came from Democrats.

6. Whites are split 50/50 between the two parties in this district.

7. Blacks are 90/10 Democratic.

8. 98% of Republlicans are white.

9. 80% of Democrats are black.

10. White turnout was 38%; Black turnout was 32%.

11. This means that, although the registered voters in this district are 52%
black and 48% non-black, the turnout on Election Day was 52% non-black and
48% black.

12. Majette won 90% of the white vote and 25% of the black vote.

13. McKinney won 75% of the black vote and 10% of the white vote.

14. 80% of Majette’s vote came from whites.

Bottom Line:
Majette was the candidate of choice for Republicans and whites; McKinney was
the candidate of choice for Democrats and blacks.

GOP Crossover voting defeated Cynthia McKinney in the Primary
All else being equal, had this primary election been restricted only to
Democrats –
Cynthia McKinney very likely would have won. Further, she was actually the
clear
candidate of choice of Democrats.

Of those 38.24% of voters who were Republicans (based on vote performance)
who cast ballots in the August 2002 primary, over 97% of their votes went to
Denise
Majette. Therefore, in the August 2002 Democratic primary, Denise Majette
received
nearly all the Republican vote, and Republican turnout was much higher than
Democratic turnout. For DeKalb County Only:

Total Votes Cast 115,265
Eligible Voters 343,402
Turnout 33.57%

Votes for Majette 66,467
Votes for McKinney 48,798

Republican Voters in county 30.89%
Democratic voters in county 69.11%

Republican Turnout in 2002 primary 44.60%
Democratic Turnout in 2002 primary 32.19%

Estimated % of Voters in 2002 Primary Republican 38.24%
Estimated % of Voters in 2002 Primary Democratic 61.76%

Republican Vote for Majette 97.12%
Republican Vote for McKinney 2.88%

Democratic Vote for Majette 32.72%
Democratic Vote for McKinney 67.27%

What Happened?

Estimated Number of GOP votes received by Majette 45,948
Estimated Number of GOP votes received by McKinney 1,363
Net advantage in GOP vote for Majette 44,585

Estimated Number of Democratic votes received by Majette 24,996
Estimated Number of Democratic votes received by McKinney 51,391
Net advantage in Democratic vote for McKinney 26,394

Estimated Winning Margin for Majette 18,191
Actual Winning Margin for Majette 17,669

Estimated Percent of Majette's Total Vote Republican 64.77%
Estimated Percent of McKinney's Total Vote Democratic 97.42%
Estimated Percent of Democrats Voting for McKinney 67.27%

Can the Majette win be attributed solely to GOP crossover voting? YES
Was Majette the Democratic candidate of choice? NO

Almost 80% of the people voting for Majette were not black and over 87% of
the votes captured by McKinney were from African Americans. In the end,
there can be little doubt from these results that Denise Majette was the
candidate of choice of the non-black majority, and that Cynthia McKinney was
the candidate of choice for African-American voters in this open primary.
