October 25, 2012 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Milwaukee Admirals News Release
MILWAUKEE - The debates are over and now its time to make a decision! Before you do it at the ballot box, cast your vote with us in WisPolitics.com's Decision 2012 as the Milwaukee Admirals conduct a straw poll of the presidential election by means of bobblehead.
On November 2 when the Admirals take on the Lake Erie Monsters at 7:00 pm at the BMO Harris Bradley Center the Ads will take a straw poll of their fans. The team will give out 5,000 bobbleheads, 2,500 each of President Obama and Governor Romney, courtesy of Robert Haack Diamonds. When a fan comes through the gate, they will be asked to choose which candidate's bobblehead they want to receive and the candidate who runs out first will be declared the winner.
"The methodology that we are using in this poll is a bit unorthodox, but we have done extensive research and believe it to be both precise and impactful," said Admirals President Jon Greenberg. "As a president myself, I can appreciate the effort that these two candidates have given to this process and, therefore, I encourage our fans, no matter their political persuasion, to engage in the machine of democracy by supporting Admirals hockey. "
This will be the third straw poll that the Admirals have conducted, albeit the first via bobblehead. Back in 2008, the Admirals successfully predicted that Obama would defeat John McCain to win the Presidency and in 2010 the Admirals poll predicted a Scott Walker Gubernatorial win and, that was confirmed as well.
For the chance to secure a spot in the Admirals straw poll fans should call Ticketmaster at 800-745-3000 or by logging onto www.ticketmaster.com. Groups of 10 or more receive significant discounts off the original ticket price. For more information, or to purchase group tickets, fans can call the Admirals office at (414) 227-0550.
