Whatever your persuasion, if you aren't energized by the engagement of the American public in the political process this year, you might want to check your pulse. Some stats I've heard in the media today:
More than three times as many Americans under age 30 in Georgia voted yesterday than did in 2004.
Five times as many New Yorkers under 30 voted yesterday.
More people voted yesterday than on Super Tuesday 1968 - the last time that we saw these historic levels of voter turnout.
Imagine what we could accomplish if only we had this kind of engagement more than once every 40 years.
