They are our youngest voters, and for many, this will be their first Presidential election vote. Many have been deeply affected by 9/11 and many of their peers have gone off to fight in Afghanistan and Iraq. Those that are more politically active are out there knocking on doors, making phone calls, holding up signs, and cheering at events. They work hard for their candidates and they're trying to get others their age to feel as strongly about politics as they do. Today on the Exchange, we'll talk with two young Republicans and two young Democrats from the Granite State about their involvement in politics, the issues that are important to their generation, and how George Bush and John Kerry are doing in courting their peers.
