Is there any data available on young voters? (18-30)

Exit polls by state or county, for instance?

Zogby predicted 64% of young voters for Kerry, and he was probably right. I think here's a possibility to detect more anomalies.

54 % age 18-29 for Kerry
53 % age 30-44 for Bush

50 % without any degree for Kerry
52 % of High School absolvents for Bush
52 % with a college degree for Bush
55 % of people above College level for Kerry

Interesting also the minorities

74 % of jews for Kerry
88 % of Blacks for Kerry
53 % of Latinos for Kerry
56 % of Asians for Kerry

5. Yesterday on NPR
http://www.npr.org/programs/totn/

Monday, November 8, 2004

Rock stars courted them; politicians counted on them. The question is, did anything convince larger numbers of young people to get out and vote on Election Day? We discuss who showed up, who didn't and why.

Come January, a freshly minted group will join their more seasoned colleagues in Congress to begin a new legislative session. After a bitter campaign season, control of two branches of government still rests with Republicans. We talk with key legislators about how both parties will work together to move the country forward.

Just click on Listen to MONDAY'S show.
