People Considering Bankruptcy Leaning Towards Obama

October 8, 2008

BankruptcyHome.com (disclosure: website owned by company I work for) recently conducted a poll amongst those who were considering bankruptcy.

I’m not particularly shocked by the results; most of them are leaning towards Obama.

Democratic presidential candidate Barak Obama was the choice when respondents were asked which of the major-party candidates they felt would be the better choice to handle the economy. He received 48.17 percent of the support voiced by respondents compared to 21.39 percent for Republican candidate John McCain.

Hopefully, as a startup founder/ceo or small business owner bankruptcy is the last thing on your mind and you’re focused on building business even in this economic downturn.

Personally, I’m not convinced either candidate is really well equipped to “lead” us back to enconomic growth. However, you can be sure that if either candidate somehow manages to raise taxes on small business owners and their employees/customers, the American economy will suffer further and we may see more businesses in bankruptcy.
