But with good additions of quotations, I soon realized that she was indeed for voting. I just think that she could have taken a firmer stance on the subject.zach rhodeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14158337817866520463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100642211848446754.post-16416934982386806002008-11-13T10:34:00.000-08:002008-11-13T10:34:00.000-08:00The author is fair to both sides but is clearly fo...The author is fair to both sides but is clearly for voting. Her use of statistics helped to sway the reader and further displayed her point.

However, I don't think her citations were made in the best possible way. Her stats that she used were very good and helpful but she could have presented where she got them from in a different way. It was not very interesting to read, but she got her point across what she wanted to say.Evan Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00789170255225905872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100642211848446754.post-42086837402461854372008-11-10T09:41:00.000-08:002008-11-10T09:41:00.000-08:00I think the author touched points on certain detai...I think the author touched points on certain details about young voters, and implemented key statistics and details where they were needed.

She overall used the right citations at the right time and stated both sides on why people between the ages18-24 voted and why they didn’t voted. She also presented that she felt that people between the ages 18-24 should vote clearly. There were a few paragraphs that were too long and boring but it was good paper overall.Corday Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06320477010044029965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100642211848446754.post-77429666900348538612008-11-09T17:07:00.000-08:002008-11-09T17:07:00.000-08:00This essay was good but I found some paragraphs to...This essay was good but I found some paragraphs to be wordy and boring.It is more than clear that this author is on the side to vote rather than not too, but she presents both sides fairly.

This was apparent and therefore made each paragraph easier to read.
