I hate it when people use math to fool the masses.  If more people register to vote and then go vote, the percentages stay the same. Say in 2004 that 500,000 people voted out of 1,000,000 registered voters. Thats a 50% turn out. Now in 2008 950,000 people go vote out of a possible 2,000,000.  Guess what, thats 47.5% turnout.  Even though 450,000 new people voted, your voter turnout percentage went down.  Percentages don't mean shit. Statistics will give you 100% of what you are looking for 50% of the time.  At least i think thats the way the saying goes.

We know how many eligible voters there are in the country. We know how many people voted. The percentage is the same as it was in 2004.

I wanna know how you think thats being manipulated when all of it is public knowledge. They didn't need a study to figure this out. Anyone could've done the math by looking at the number of eligible voters in the country and then looking at the numbers for how many people actually voted.

The only thing that matters is that the neocons lost. Not only did they lose, but they are literally lost.

Exactly. That was my point.  Just because %=% does not mean voter turnout = voter turnout.  Doesn't need to be studied.  Just look at the numbers.
