On, Wisconsin!
Early returns from Wisconsin's primary show young voters turned out big today!
While we don't have hard turnout numbers yet, 18-29 year olds made up a much larger portion of the voters today than they did in 2004. That, coupled with news reports all day of big turnout statewide, is a sure sign that Wisconsin is yet another example of the way we're taking this election into our own hands this year.
Texas, Ohio, Vermont, and Rhode Island - you're next!

This whole website is really condescending towards young people. It is trying way to hard to be "hip", and isn't giving young people enough credit.
I hope that someday this group will change their ways, and talk to young people on a mature level, rather than using terms like "Check it". Give us some credit.
As a young person, I want to be taken seriously as a human-being, this aspirations is made a mockery of when a group like this tries to reach my demographic by handing out "Rock the Playboy bunny" pins.
I am all for voting, I just don't intend to "Rock" it. I would much rather have a say in the democratic process.
I hope that this comment gets past your moderator, however, somehow I think thats highly unlikely. If this can't be an open forum for unbiased discussion, someone might have to start a "www.dontrockthevote.com" which interestingly enough would be more in the spirit of democracy.
Remember "Censorship is Unamerican".
