Fewer Young Voters See Themselves as Democrats
By KIRK JOHNSON
Published: September 2, 2010
Though many students are liberals on social issues, the economic reality of a weak job market has taken a toll on their loyalties: far fewer 18- to 29-year-olds now identify themselves as Democrats compared with 2008.
Is the recession, which is hitting young people very hard, doing lasting or permanent damage to what looked like a good Democratic advantage with this age group? asked Scott Keeter, the director of survey research at the Pew Research Center, a nonpartisan group. The jury is still out.
Damn... It may be Uglier than '94...
peace...
