4. I can't help but wonder where younger first time voters fit into the model
At the Obama rally in NH, nearly 60% of the people there had never voted because they were not old enough to vote previously. Now, on the BBC this morning, they interviewed an early voter who was voting for her first time - she was very enthusiastic! So enthusiastic, in fact, that she had convinced her mother who was on the fence to not only vote for Obama, but to vote early at her daughter's insistence. How on earth does a pollster account for that dynamic?
