Youth Voter Turnout Key in Iowa
The increase in the youth vote boosted the number of Iowans who caucused last night. The Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) reported 11 percent of eligible Iowans under 30 caucused in 2008, compared with four percent who caucused in 2004. CIRCLE’s research supports Rock the Vote’s Heather Smith’s belief that young men and women are no longer politically apathetic.
