Would the US primary election get a larger voter turnout if it were held on "American Idol".... ?

Question

or possibly "Dancing With The Stars".

Just a thought.

Answer 1

Well, all the voters would be under the age of 18.

Answer 2

american idol voters can vote up to ten times and any age. i guess someone made a little funny there, but you just cant compare.

although many dems have voted while dead , so maybe there s hope

Answer 3

A sad thought with a bit of truth...I hold hope that we are better than that, as this is an important election, and "Idol" is

only barely entertainment...

Answer 4

If people can't be bothered to take an interest in who leads this country, then I don't want them voting.

Answer 5

My cousins in Europe say Americans are the most entertained and least informed people they know.  I think many people don't care to be informed and that's way we are in such a sad state, there will be no change unless people are willing to vote out all the crooks at every election until things improve.
