RW polls desperately trying to cover for upcoming republican voter fraud!
Folks, a modern day miracle is occurring. On Aug. 15, the Washington Post reported that voters between the ages of 18-29 were going to vote for Kerry by a margin of 2-1.

Today, a Newsweek poll comes out and said that the vote in this age group is evenly split between *the abomination that causes desolation* and John Kerry.

Isn't it amazing that this unbelievable phenomenon took place among these folks 18-29 who magically and suddenly decided to vote for Bu$h in the short space of 2 months, despite the fact that Kerry made Bu$h look like a petulant, spoiled child in the debates? And that 1,100 American troops are now dead, and that the possibility of a Bu$h imposed military draft is approaching 100%?

Yuh, sure - uh....it could happen.

Not.

Furthermore, until DUers pointed out the fact that many people in this age group used cell phones and did not have land lines in their homes, the RW media made no mention of it.

There is no longer any doubt in my mind that these RW owned polls are directly coordinated with republican fraud efforts in order to support fraudulent vote counts.

These RW media corporate polls are clearly FOS, and polling methods and samples are chosen in order to achieve desired results. Every one of them might as well be conducted by Clear Channel or Sinclair Broadcast Group.

Younger Voters Rapidly Deserting Bush
By Richard Morin and Christopher Muste
Washington Post Staff Writers
Sunday, August 15, 2004

But that was then. In the latest Post-ABC News poll, taken immediately after the Democratic National Convention, Kerry led Bush 2 to 1 among registered voters younger than 30. Among older voters, the race was virtually tied. About 1 in 6 voters in 2000 was between 18 and 29 years old

Virtually every other major poll conducted in the past month confirms Kerry's popularity with voters under the age of 30. A poll by the Pew Center for the People & the Press released Thursday reported Kerry still ahead by 18 points among this group
snip----
The latest Post-ABC News survey found that Kerry consistently topped Bush by double-digit margins as the candidate young adults trusted to deal with every major issue, including the economy, Iraq, education and health care. The Democrat also was viewed by substantial margins as best able to handle taxes and the campaign against terrorism, issues where Bush still had an advantage among all voters.

The issues motivating younger voters are not much different from those on the minds of all Americans. The war in Iraq and the economy lead their list of top voting concerns in recent Post-ABC News surveys -- not surprising, because it is mostly young people who are fighting in Iraq and hustling to keep or find jobs in this uncertain economy. Education ranks somewhat higher as a voting issue among younger voters, not unexpected either, since many of them are just out of school or are still in college.

Newsweek Poll: Youth Vote Shows Bush, Kerry Neck-and-Neck (47% for Kerry, 45% for Bush); But Kerry's Lead Grows Among Likely Voters (52% to 42%)
Monday October 18, 3:30 pm ET

NEW YORK, Oct. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- The race for the White House remains just as tight among voters under the age of 30 as it does among the voting public at large, according to the first GENEXT poll conducted since the conclusion of the debates, reports Associate Editor Brian Braiker.

If the election were held today, the two main candidates would be neck- and-neck among the youth vote, with 47 percent voting for Kerry and 45 percent for President George W. Bush, numbers that remain essentially unchanged since last month's poll. Independent candidate Ralph Nader draws 4 percent of the youth vote, down two points from the September poll. Among likely youth voters (as opposed to all registered voters under 30), Kerry's lead actually grows to a statistically significant 10 point spread (52 to 42 percent) in a three-way race.
