Super Tuesday DVC Scores in Hungarian Media
Embassy Budapest Public Affairs invited the Hungarian media to its DVC facility on the day after Super Tuesday (February 6, 2008) to have a video-conference with two U.S. elections specialists, Gary Nordlinger, the President of Nordlinger Associates, a political and public affairs consulting firm and Ann Stone, an entrepreneur and political activist.
Given the tremendous interest in the U.S. elections in Hungary the journalists were eager to hear the views of the two American experts, Nordlinger for the Democratic side and Stone for the Republican about the Super Tuesday primaries results. Who was up, who was down and who was out. The speakers also answered questions on the trends in the making, what was motivating U.S. voters and what might be happening in the next few months. Of special interest were the many different voting blocs and their turnout numbers and their candidate preferences. The DVC helped to explain a great deal about the U.S. election system and the leading candidates running for President this year.
