If you wanted to get real crazy you could analyze the statistics of registered voters at any of the 3 Supervisor of Elections websites. Get the excel spreadsheet, choose only precincts that fall within The Villages boundary and run some simple equations to figure out percentages of party affiliation... you can even analyze further based on sex or age or particular precinct to figure out just how republican, democrat or other your specific neighborhood is.
Or, you could just do a message board poll, a lot less work that way...
