New & Young voters still only 17% of the total vote

[polarpi]

I personally don't look at percentages when seeing if someone (or a group) did "something" more than in the past. Looking at concrete numbers, such as the ACTUAL number of votes cast by young voters this election versus the actual number case by young voters last election, seems to me to be a much more realistic gauge as to determining if there's been an increase in something.

But maybe that's just my analytical mind ticking away....
