Ie. among non-voters.

Mayor Giuliani's percentage-point lead over Senator McCain grows slightly among non-college youth

Also, youngsters who can't read at all strongly favor the tough-talking drag queen.

[SteveMcKing]

And largely non-taxpayers 'coincidentally'.

18-24 year olds?

If it were up to me, they wouldn’t be allowed to vote until they’ve held a job for 5 years and had had a family.

Most of them aren’t savvy enough on the issues or don’t care or are just too ignorant in that stage of life.

But do you have any data on which Republicans this age group supports?

(((RUDY PING))))

I think you might find info on the PDF link at the bottom.

I worked with people in this age group. They usually chose a Democrat, but couldn’t bring themselves to get to the polls to vote.

[kinoxi]

Obama and Giuliani. Sounds like an effective dem ticket.

Obama, Giuliani lead pack in race for President among 18-24 year-old LIBERALS SOCIALISTS.

Thanks for the link.

BTW-I did find an error in their data. They put Rudy’s name in the group with Republican candidates.

I would expect a bit more fact checking from the folks at Harvard.

Ie. among non-voters.

That was exactly my thoughts when I saw the title...The "Vote or Die" crowd.

[areafiftyone]

Whatever!

[Man50D]

They put Rudy’s name in the group with Republican candidates.

It's not a mistake considering the Republican party is becoming increasingly socialist.

[areafiftyone]

I see the BREAKFAST CLUB has arrived!

[sergeantdave]

Given a choice, the majority of 18 to 24 year old people favor 50¢ beer night over world peace and believe potato chips are on the food pyramid.

The indoctrination is working. And I could have told you this. These kids have grown up with a very poor understanding of history or what makes this nation unique.

As someone who just left this age group, my peers have annoyed me to no end over this nonsense. With the first kink you throw into an argument, the walls come tumbling down. But you won’t change their minds. Rrrr....

Most of these people will like Obama but really only know that 1) he’s black, 2) he’s young, 3) he speaks well, and 4) he’s against the war. That’s enough, apparently. I’ve seen it over and over again.

Rudy runs weakest with young people, and strongest with people over 50.
