CNN: "Youth vote not greater proportionally than in 2000"
Whoever it is that's sitting with Larry King and Carlos Watson just said:

"Apparently they're happy to listen to Bruce Springsteen and the Dixie Chicks sing, but it's too far for them to walk to the polls."

:grr:

Looking forward to seeing actual, non-biased numbers on the turnout.

3. New voters evidently didn't turn out, either
CBS News reported that 11% of voters were new this year, compared with 9% last time.

4. Proportionately? In an election with extraordinary turnout?
What are the raw numbers comparing 2000 and 2004?

Another smarmy talking head talking.
