Ohio, Kerry \*I also know three voters under the age of 25 that could have voted in the last election but didn’t and have registered specifically to vote for Kerry this time around. I prodded them to get out and vote, and they also went to see Fahrenheit 911. \*This kind of pheneomenon could figure heavily into this election and means bad news for Bush. ---
