THIS IS GOOD NEWS FOR THE DEMS

but there's an odd interpretation thrown in. First, the good news:

AP IMPACT: More than 3.5 million new voters, AP survey finds
By MIKE BAKER – 3 hours ago

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — Voter excitement, always up before a presidential election, is pushing registration through the roof so far this year — with more than 3.5 million people rushing to join in the historic balloting, according to an Associated Press survey that offers the first national snapshot.

Figures are up for blacks, women and young people. Rural and city. South and North.

The news even gets a little better:

Cherie Poucher, director of elections in Wake County, home of the state capital of Raleigh, said registrations among the parties have historically kept pace with each other — until this year. In the two weeks before the April 11 registration deadline, she said, the Democrats gained about 8,000 voters in Wake County while the GOP lost several hundred.

"We have never seen something like that before," Poucher said.

This is the odd part:

Voters are flocking to the most open election in half a century, inspired to support the first female president, the first black or the oldest ever elected.

I don't think many people are geeked about voting for Granpa McWAR.
