Halloween Mask Sales Reflect National Election Polls

Halloween Masks

With Obama in the lead in most national election polls, voters are putting their money where their votes are. Amazon has been tracking for the last several weeks the sales of Halloween masks of both Barack Obama and John McCain. Most polls give Obama a 5-10% greater number of voters, which is interestingly similar to the lead Obama holds in Halloween mask sales. I personally have not decided who I’m going to vote for, but I’m pretty sure that no matter which way I decide I would still prefer a McCain mask, simply ’cause it’s much more funny to wear a mask of an old person.
