Trump has won more youth votes than McCain, Romney, Clinton

He's no Sen. Bernie Sanders, but Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has so far won more support from younger voters than the last two GOP presidential candidates and Hillary Rodham Clinton.

A new analysis of the primary youth vote from Tufts University's Jonathan M. Tisch College of Civic Life shows that in 21 primaries, Trump received 828,675 votes from those up to age 29, and Clinton 766,425. Sanders owned the category, receiving 2,052,081 votes.

The youth are the most dumbed-down part of the electorate

Yep.  They love shiny objects, the latest fad. 

There can be little doubt, though, that they like Bernie's free stuff the best.

In one more generation cursive will be considered encryption and people who can do math in their head will be chased by mobs and burned at the stake as witches.

Which must mean you're old.

My friend, I suspect the median age here skews a little high.

I was just joking with him because I think he is really smart and clever.  As are you.  That's why I troll your and his comments all the time.  LOL.  I try to keep up with the funniest posters like you guys, Wingnut and Frank Cannon and others.  I was not gifted with such humor talents.  LOL.  But I can appreciate them.

Thank you.

You do just fine.

Yeah, as long as you leave out that he's drawn less than half of the vote total of the actual winner among that demographic, you could say things are going great!

That's... a really arbitrary number.

Usually the statistics are 'college-aged' or 'entering the workforce'.  This is a very strange delimiter.

Sorry to the Powers which be... Hollowed be your names...   ..

But I just could not resist this.

 Different comb-over...same day.

Not as impressive when looked at the totality of the primary vote.

It works now, I screen captured to my account.. just a little rust in posting BBC  format.

Usually I would hotlink.... but that failed the last time.

Right?

Now there is some truth.

Wow, even that loser McCain beat Trump.

[Fantom]

Ohhh.  You know what.  I totally agree with you.  Know what else?  The powers that be are going to get you for it.  LOL.  At least I saw it first.

Actually, those Powers are pretty kool.

I am sure  my post will be flagged by some..one or two in particular.

Lets see, just what a sense of humor is allowed.
