Presidential Voter Turnout

Jeremy Said:

Did the voter turnout for the Presidential Election create a bias towards Congressional Democrats this year?

We Answered:

Certainly anytime a presidential or gubernatorial candidate can create an increase in turnout it will benifit down tickets on their party.

Priscilla Said:

Will voter turnout improve for this next Presidential election?

We Answered:

Voter turnout is higher when the public either loves a candidate or hates the incumbent and wants change. Bush's current approval ratings make me think America wants change. If one of the other candidates turns out to be intelligent, charismatic, and full of good ideas for the future, I am hopeful that voter turnout will be very high.

Karen Said:

Was voter turnout in the Presidential Election really that high this year?

We Answered:

110 or 120 million, whatever it was it was the same as 2004. also not true about the youth vote as only 11% voted and also only 13% of black people voted.

Allan Said:

What are some factors which contribute to the low voter turnout in presidential elections in the United States?

They take their freedoms and duties lightly. Freedom is a delicate item to cherish but can quickly be eroded rather quickly as we can see.
