From MSNBC:

"Combining polls it conducted in August and September, Pew found that of people under age 30 with only cell phones, 62 percent were Democrats and 28 percent Republicans. Among landline users the same age that gap was narrower: 54 percent Democrats, 36 percent GOP.Similarly, young cell users preferred Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama over Republican nominee John McCain by 35 percentage points. For young landline users, it was a smaller 13-point Obama edge."

Interesting poll. I look forward to seeing if the youth vote walks the walk.

Historically, what group tends to show up regularly to vote? Angry white women? :D

I think I remember reading that the elderly are the most reliable voters and young voters the least. So, it will be interesting to see how many of the newly registered young voters bother to show up in November. However, the most interesting trend maybe to see if the Bradley effect shows up. It would be sad if it does, but it may.

Younger and blue collar voters, which is why polls tend to be skewed toward democrats. The Gallup poll is of registered voters, so it's slightly skewed that way. The swing votes will decide this. They went for Bush in 2004, nobody really knows where they'll go this time around.
