It’s a blue world.
The Canadian newspaper Globe & Mail is reporting the results of a worldwide poll of 70 countries that was conducted between May and September that found that most of the world supports a Barack Obama presidency:
Around the world, respondents favoured Mr. Obama 4 to 1 over Republican John McCain.
In Canada, 67 per cent chose Mr. Obama and 22 per cent Mr. McCain. And 75 per cent of Canadian respondents said the presidential election would make a difference for their own country.
The Democratic nominee also enjoyed levels of support higher than 60 per cent in Australia, Germany, England and Japan, where the U.S. election was viewed as having a global impact.
Around the world, only Georgia, Cambodia, Laos and the Philippines backed the Republican candidate.
