I really don't see much actual voting from the Occupy crowd, I'm kind of shocked that you have their participation so high. Very few actual young people choose to vote as compared with their total numbers.

Apply that to metalheads, etc.

Teaparty isn't going to break for Mitt.

Well, I'd need confirmation whether we are talking about eligible voters or no. We're seeing, what, 10 percent of the total being people under 40 in most primaries?

I'd argue only about 10 percent of those under 40 are politically active, (and disproportionately represented here). It's not so much that marley fans don't vote, but that young people don't. Voter participation steadily drops too as the boomers get older.

Given the distribution of Mitt support? Depends on who the third party is, plenty of us in the party will break with the republicans if they nominate Mitt.

One fourth of the under 30s voting and these particular subgroups of youth voters being half as likely.
