A survey of 1,200 undergraduates across the country finds they favor the Democratic senator from Massachusetts over President Bush 52 percent to 39 percent.

Eighteen- to 25-year-olds are the least likely segment of the population to vote but college students are twice as likely to vote as their peers without higher education.

The Harvard University Institute of Politics survey of 1,202 undergraduates was conducted Oct. 7-13 and found support for Kerry even higher on college campuses in 14 swing states, where he enjoyed a 55 percent to 38 percent advantage over Bush.

The poll has a margin of error of 2.8 percentage points

1. Yeah!

I saw someone on CNN mentioning something about this the other day! They said the college polling stats showed Kerry kicking butt among college students throughout the nation.. And that they wish pollsters would try to keep that in mind when they release these daily polls.

Of course... there's no way the info can be included in the polls they release since the majority of the students rely on cell phones.

It takes studies like that one from Harvard, or people like the guy that came on CNN to complain that polls aren't including college students.. ;)
