One surprise this time was the high number of younger voters who turned out. I think it was 10 million more than 2004.



Curious..... where are you getting that info?...

Exit polling shows the 18-29 yr old group for this election at 12% [60% democrat] where in the 04 presidential race they were at 17% [54% Kerry].... I haven't looked at total participation by numbers for 04-06 but usually an off year is much lower.

Well, deport, I am getting it from my feeble memory of something I read here on FR. And since you bothered to look up the statistics, I guess I mis-remembered.

I stand corrected.
