Actually last November Romney won white 18-29 voters 51%

in 2008 Obama won them by 55%

exit polls in 2008 and 2012 over sampled minorities by 20-30%...on purpose in my view

http://www.cnn.com/election/2012/results/race/president#exit-polls

the funny thing is under 45 folks on this forum think the boomers were always the most liberal

if so then why did 55% of under 30 folks vote for Nixon in 1972?

One of Nixon’s major planks was ending the war in Viet Nam. It stands to reason he got a huge percentage of the under 30 vote.
