Only one problem. Research indicates new voters under the age of 30 are mostly (>50%) conservative in their views. So I say to RTV.... sign 'em up.

See, the thing that doesn't sit well with me, even if the above is true, is that I find it hard to believe that people under the age of 30, and especially under the age of 25, have any firm grasp of current events, past events leading to those current events, and who their duly elected representatives are and how they fit into either of the aforementioned.
To put it bluntly, I do not feel comfortable encouraging people to vote who have no grasp of the issues outside of that they know their candidate wears boxers.
