2008 Youth Voter Turn Out
Something big is happening in our democracy – young people are voting. Young people turned out in record numbers in the 2008 primaries. Youth voting:
Saw record turnout in Super Tuesday states
More than tripled in the Iowa caucuses
Increased by 25 percent in the New Hampshire primaries
Nearly tripled in the South Carolina primary (Democratic)
More than tripled in the Florida primaries
Not only did young voters turn out in big numbers, but they were also critical to deciding the winners of these contests.
