New Voters Are Swinging The Polls In Obama's Favor... Will They Vote On Election Day?

A poll conducted by NewsCorp from October 17-20 that asked new voters who they would be voting for and whether or not they were certain to vote, turned out some very interesting statistics. Though new voters favored Barrack Obama (69%) to John McCain (27%) only 60% of those polled said that they were certain to go to the polls on the 4th. When you compare this to the polls of all voters, in which 52% said they would vote for Obama, while 42% said they would vote for McCain, but 90% of of voters were certain they would vote , One might think that the current polls may not show this elections results. In a day where it has become very trendy to be registered to vote and seen sporting a T-Shirt supporting Mr. Obama one must ask how many of these "supporters" will actually make it to the polls on election day. This year will truly be the test of the willpower of America's youth to vote because if a "star candidate", a war, and a struggling economy are not enough to generate the desire among youth to have some say in political process what is?
