COMMENTARY

Steven (St. Paul Minnesota)
18th April 2006

Hmm looks like 6 of the top ten states for youth voter turnout went for John Kerry. The bottom six all for for George W. Bush. Seems as though the Democratic Party should be focusing even more on getting out the youth vote. Perhaps we might see some change in this country.
