Chekis-Sample+Voter+Turnout

Voter Turnout Among U.S. citizens. The first thing that I notice is the fact that in 1972 Hispanic people didn’t vote at all. The largest percentage of Hispanics voting was in 1992. Overall Hispanic people voted the most compared to the African and White men. In 1990 and in 1994 there was the same percentage of White and African men voting. In 1972 White men had the highest voting rate, while in 1984 the African men had the highest voting percentage.

College and Non College (Presidential Election 18-24 years of age) Looking at the graph I would say that during the election of 1972 with nominees of Richard Nixon and George McGovern you saw a lot of people that went to college voting on that day and half as many people that didn’t receive a college education voting on that day. In fact every time there was an election College educated people voted the most while there was always half as many people that didn’t get a college education that voted. The highest percentage of people that went to college and voted was on the election of 1972. The highest percentage of people that didn’t got to college and voted was on the election of 1972, which was between Bill Clinton and Bob Dole. The lowest percentage for people voting for both college and non college educated was during the years 1996 and 2000, which in both years had the same percentage for the for college educated and for non college educated.

Gender and Marital Status (Presidential election 25 and older) Over all when I look at this graph I see that there is a high percentage of people voting at the age of 25 and older. Married females and males had the highest voting percentage. Single males had the lowest voting percentage overall while single women had the 3rd highest. In 1992 was the highest voting peak for both married women and men during the presidential election of Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush and Ross Perot. The lowest voting peak for single men and women was during the 1996 election. In year 2000 and 1996 the percentage of single men and women was the same.

Youth Of Voters Who Can and Who Did Vote This chart represents the data given about young voters. The data proves that over the course of some years those young voters have grown fond of voting. The voters are getting more knowledgeable about what and whom they want to vote about. This graph may also mean that the advertisement process has gotten a lot better over the years. Meaning that the advertisement is much more appealing and that is grasps the attention of other young voters.

High School Grads Who Could Vote and Who Did Vote This chart denotes the climbing rate of both Men High School Grads and Men’s less than a High School Grad. If read correctly, it can be determined from the graph that men with a HS diploma voted much more than men without a HS diploma over the course of 40 years or so. Though the two lines appear so be very close, they are actually about 14% away from each other. This helps one to realize that men with a HS diploma voted a significant amount more over the course of the years than those without one meaning that having a HS diploma actually helps or encourages one to vote.

Cumulative, these graphs show and explain how those with lower qualifications or anything that doesn't amount to the American Dream have tendencies for not having as high of a voter turnout rate as those who acquire those attributes. All of the graphs show some sort of general common ground. The things that are common in all of these graphs is the way that the data is represented. Most of this data is just stuff that relates to a successful persons life instead of those who have regular lives that may have not have succeeded as much as others.
