So, as you might have heard there's an election in 2008. A big one. One that will certainly bring young people to the polls in new record numbers.
This is will be even more true for young people in Missouri if a couple proposed initiatives make it onto the ballot. One of the initiatives lowers the drinking age to 18, while the other does away with affirmative action and similar programs.
These are two initiatives that drastically affect young people and will undoubtedly serve to increase turnout among young people. That's one more reason for the not-so-young Missouri politicos to pay attention to young people.
One interesting item to keep an eye on: Will these initiatives receive official endorsements from the College Republicans or College Democrats?

These initiatives don't mean anything yet...they still have to get the required signatures of registered voters. We'll see.
