This is good news. I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that we can pull this out.

I know people who are going out of their way to vote this year. Terri never got her absentee ballot for PA, re-submitted her request via Federal Express last week, STILL never got the ballot even after phoning, so she is *driving* to Lancaster to cast her vote.

That's fascinating, while the "liberal college student" stereotype exists from the hippie days, the youth vote has been in the Republican column for a long time.

The student intern in my office tells me this is due in part to the Eminem video. Have you seen it?

This is merely anecdotal, of course; but this is the closest take I have on what is causing 18-19 y.o's to GOTV-- including their own.
