There's 6 Million potential young voters in CA and boy do we seem to be popular...

Today's Oak Trib featured an article about the "new" focus on young voters.

Most of the article is a regurgitation of what we've been talking about for a while: young people do want to vote and they care about the same issues everyone else cares about!

The Young Republican's said they were going to focus on mail to young people, and my response quoted response was:

Television ads and direct mail are fine, said the group's president, Crystal
Strait of Sacramento, but to engage and mobilize young voters, there's no
substitute for "having young people from a community talk to young people of
that community about why it's important to vote and what's at stake."

Voting and party membership are learned habits, and Strait said the
general wisdom is that "if you get a young person to vote in three elections,
you have them for life."
