Elections Canada tells us that voter participation goes up with age, with a small spike for 1st time voters that drops in the next election, and then participation increases as they get older. What are 18 year old voters thinking? Do we think they're leaning Liberal or Conservative?

I have read, watched and listened to days of breathless #Political #HorseRace coverage of the #GOP #IowaCaucus and not once has any #media outlet mentioned that the results are a pretty poor sampling of a small fractional #minority of the state's voters who even bother to #engage in #VoterParticipation ... In a state of over 3 million people, barely 108,000 voters participated...That is way less than 4% of the state's current population. 43
Nearly the same amount of people that voted attended a Women's Volleyball game in next door Nebraska last year as bothered to vote in this #GOPprimary...
But do go on and keep basing electoral predictions and extrapolate millions of megabytes of media coverage on Iowa ?
Total voters tallied are basically the population of the state's third largest town Davenport.
I cannot even find out a tally of how many were female. The grand total is not even 15% of the state's registered #Republican voters.
Take this gushing #MassMedia re-coronation of #DJT and his #Flex with a grain of #salt and realize we have a lot more diverse electorate nationally that may or may not be voting on far different issues and considering other information and candidates than a rural state that is one of Amurica's least diverse, with 90% caucasian citizenery in general, and even higher representation than that in the registered GOP voter base.
