New PPP poll on Civil War outcome is a doozy

In a poll released today, PPP revealed what southerners from former confederate states (Mississippi, North Carolina, and Georgia) think about the outcome of the Civil War.

This is ugly.

GA NC MS
Glad North won 53% 48% 34%
Wish South had won 23% 21% 27%
Not sure 24% 31% 39%

Looking at the crosstabs and the sampling size, I can conclude that among the three states only 54% of blacks are glad the North won the Civil War. An astounding 12% of blacks wish the South had won, with 33% unsure.

What the hell?
