that's one thing i've always wondered.

What would happen if you had two guys running against each other. One candidate was from New York City and had sort of a whiny Jewish accent. The other candidate was from California and pronounced his hometown as Buy-kers-fay-old.

Would people base their votes on how the person talked?
