LixyChick,

One good to come out of this election was the distinct increase in voter registration and turnout. Nationally, the number I recall reading was 59.1% of registered voters actually voted. This was, I believe the highest turnout since the late 60s. In my state of Maryland, 72% of registered voters went through the effort to actually vote.

The trick will be to keep these percentages this high in the future.
