That's the other side of it. Even if given the opportunity, I don't know how many of Liberty University's kids will actually bother to vote that wouldn't have voted before. Perfect example was all the fuss about the Ohio 'same-day registration and voting'. There was a big fuss by Republicans about the possibility of voter fraud and the Democrats were trying to organize a huge effort to register a bunch of new voters (they said they would fill bus after bus with people and register them to vote). When the final tally was taken, it looks like no more than several hundred people registered and even less voted. All that effort provided very few additional voters.
