    behavior research center’s Latino Poll NEWS RELEASE Contact: Earl de Berge LTLP 2003-III-13 Research Director DEMOCRAT LATINO VOTERS IN ARIZONA FAVOR WESLEY CLARK. HOWARD DEAN AND JOE LIEBERMAN CLOSE BEHIND Phoenix, Arizona, October 2, 2003. Half of registered Latino Democrats in Arizona have a preference for who they will support in the upcoming Democratic presidential primary in Arizona. And, while Howard Dean and Joe Lieberman are close on the tail of Wesley Clark, Clark is ahead despite only recently entering the race. Among those with a preference, Clark has 25 percent of the Latino vote, a six-point lead over Howard Dean who is at 19 percent and eight points ahead of Joe Lieberman, who claims third place with 17 percent. Dick Gephardt is in fourth place with 14 percent of the vote, while John Edwards attracts roughly ten percent. Further behind is John Kerry at six percent. At the bottom with less than five percent each are Bob Graham, Al Sharpton, Dennis Kucinich and Carol Mosely Braun. The strength of Wesley Clark is impressive considering he has only been in the race a few weeks and his number one position among Latino voters may be a reflection of the generally conservative and the patriotic/pro-military profile of many Latino voters. At the same time, the fact that 48 percent of Arizona’s Latino voters remain uncommitted suggests with months of campaigning ahead, the outcome is anything but certain. Not all Latino voters are Democrats and each year the proportions are shifting gradually toward the GOP.

Harmon was one of several distinguished Army officers to come from the Harmon family. His father graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1880 and later served as Commandant of Cadets at the Pennsylvania Military Academy. Two older brothers, Kenneth and Millard, were members of the West Point class of 1910 and 1912, respectively. The former served as Chief of the San Francisco Ordnance District during World War II; the latter reached flag rank and was lost over the Pacific during World War II while serving as Commander of the Pacific Area Army Air Forces. Hubert Harmon, born on April 3, 1882, in Chester, Pennsylvania, followed in their footsteps and graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1915. Dwight D. Eisenhower also graduated in this class, and nearly forty years later the two worked together to create the new United States Air Force Academy. Harmon left West Point with a commission in the Coast Artillery Corps, but he was able to enter the new Army air branch the following year.

  • Democratic Candidates Still Tightly Bunched
    The Harris Poll® #64, October 31, 2003 Democratic Candidates Still Tightly Bunched Lieberman, Clark have small lead over Dean, Kerry and Gephardt. _____________________________________ by Humphrey Taylor No front-runner has yet emerged in the race to be nominated as next year’s Democratic candidate for the presidency. The latest Harris Poll conducted among a sample of 596 Democrats and independents finds that Senator Joe Lieberman and General Wesley Clark have a small lead over Governor Howard Dean, Senator John Kerry and Senator Richard Gephardt. However, at this stage nobody has started to move away from the pack. This survey, which was conducted by Harris Interactive by telephone between October 14th and 19th, finds that Joe Lieberman is the best known of all the candidates, with 81% of all Democrats and independents having heard of him. He is followed in terms of familiarity by Al Sharpton (70%), Richard Gephardt (68%), John Kerry (63%), Howard Dean (58%) and Wesley Clark (53%). Only 50% or less of all Democrats and independents have heard of Senator John Edwards, former Senator Carol Moseley- Braun or Congressman Dennis Kucinich. None of the presidential aspirants have succeeded in attracting the support of more than the 13% of Democrats and independents who currently support Joe Lieberman. He is closely followed by Wesley Clark with 12%. Right behind them come Howard Dean (11%), John Kerry (10%), and Richard Gephardt (8%). The pattern of responses is broadly similar among Democrats and independents who voted in the 2000 elections with Joe Lieberman leading the field with 14%, followed by Wesley Clark with 13%.
