    >daily caller Oh shit, let's see if they can post something that's actually [i]valid[/i]. *checks link to poll* [quote]5. Which of the following statements best describes your voting in the last presidential election held on November 6th, 2012? I voted at a polling place ................................ 39%
 I voted early ................................................... 9%
 I voted by absentee ballot .............................. 10%
 I planned on voting, but wasn’t able to .......... 5%
 I did not vote in this election .......................... 33%
 I went to the polling place, but wasn’t
 allowed to vote ............................................... 1% [/quote]Ooh, 33% of 1925 didn't vote? 578 people didn't vote in this presidential election? Ah, the question that completely destroys the OP's and dailycaller's credibility: [quote]11. Do you consider yourself to be politically engaged or politically active? Yes ............................................................. 22%
 No .............................................................. 75%
 Decline to answer ........................................ 3% [/quote] Seeing as 75% of 1925 (1444 survey takers) said they aren't politically active or engaged, that basically means that the statistic provided by the OP and the Daily Caller is complete and utter bullshit. Because the question above basically gives the answer, the person who made the article for the Daily Caller is one of two things, if not both: 1: Has not taken statistics in any shape or form, or grade level. 2: Isn't very intelligent. I'm going to go with both. A person should [i]never[/i] state statistics if a very big portion of their test group has answered something that will completely defeat the purpose of the survey. In this case, 75% of the survey takers aren't even politically active, and 33% didn't even vote. The dailycaller's article, as well as the OP's opinion is now considered invalid. Edit: [quote]54. Compared to your parents, would you say that: Politics is more important
 to you personally ........................................... 12%
 Politics is less important
 to you personally ........................................... 28%
 Politics has about the same level
 of importance ................................................. 36%
 Don’t know .................................................... 20%
 Refused .......................................................... 4%[/quote] Apparently, 47% actually care about politics, even though 75% of the poll is not politically active. To add on: I see that political apathy was completely ignored by the dailycaller and they just went straight to one question that suited their needs. [quote]57. Do you have health insurance? Yes, my employer provides it ........................ 27%
 Yes, I am under 26 and covered by parents .. 35%
 Yes, I have an individual or family plan ........ 12%
 No, I am not enrolled in health insurance ...... 22%
 Refused .......................................................... 4%[/quote] Why the hell would the survey ask if they like Obamacare/ACA or not when 35% of the people who took that survey are covered under their parents? [quote]76. What is your race and ethnicity? White, Non-Hispanic ..................................... 59%
 Black, Non-Hispanic ...................................... 13%
 Hispanic ......................................................... 20%
 Other, Non-Hispanic ...................................... 7%
 Two or more races, Non-Hispanic ................. 2% [/quote] Yikes.
