RTJ are you a registered voter?
Retired
No actually I'm not. I'm 17 years old.
Looking for loopholes
The gist of the figures would appear to be that little has changed from Nov 2000 and that it will go to the wire.

Will you be 18 before election time? You have to be registered 6 weeks before the election to be able to vote.Originally posted by Rip The Jacker@10 July 2004 - 02:39

And don’t put to much weight in political polls. It’s way to early in this thing to tell.

It's good to see that a 17 year old is taking interest in the elections ( to whatever degree it might be). It is important to follow these things. Not just the electorial process but also the manifesto of each party. It matters not that a 17 year old won't vote, the outcome of the election has a direct affect upon this person beyond his/her control and come the next election that will be paid for.
it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.

Politics effects everyone, in everything they do.
If more people realised that, and gave it the attention that something that effects them so greatly deserved, there would be no low turnouts in elections.
Its good to see anyone, whatever their age, realise this.

I used to think that, but the older I get, the more I think voters should be means-tested, so we could at least get away from such phenomena as females with moist panties voting for Kerry just because Edwards is so cute.Originally posted by Rat Faced@10 July 2004 - 14:16

That would be tremendously unfair to Democrats, though, as it would probably disqualify eight out of ten of them.

Oh I dont know...
It depends what type of "Test" you set up..
The Republicans may suffer with the Rednecks not voting, if it was an IQ test as an example.....

True enough, but I suspect a much higher percentage of Republicans would qualify as informed.Originally posted by Rat Faced@10 July 2004 - 15:37

Just a guess.

Oh good grief......how silly is this becoming?...sexist comments on one side and intelectual doubts from the other..... this sounds like the childish element of the campaign name calling trail is infecting the board.... this isn't the lounge chaps
