Anti-Game Candidates Do Poorly in Iowa Caucuses

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Friday January 4, 2008 @09:17AM from the games-probably-not-the-deciding-factor dept.

Ron Bison writes to mention Game Politics is reporting that anti-game presidential candidates didn't fare so well in the Iowa caucuses. "On the Republican side, Mitt Romney, who lumps violent video games into what he terms an ocean of filth, was badly beaten by Mike Huckabee. Among Democrats, Hillary Clinton saw both Barack Obama and John Edwards win more of the popular vote. Clinton has previously proposed video game legislation in the U.S. Senate. She recently told Common Sense Media that she would support such legislation if elected president."

Furthermore, if a candidate's stance on video games is a major factor in your choice, do the rest of us a favor and don't vote at all.
