Arizona. teens leaning left, survey says

In a state that gave America its 2008 Republican presidential candidate and regularly elects conservative policy makers, a snapshot survey of 950 Arizona teenagers indicates that they are leaning decidedly left.

Among the results of a survey released today: 75 percent support giving illegal immigrants a chance to become citizens, 72 percent believe global warming is long-term and human-caused, and 65 percent say women have a right to choose abortion. Greater legal restrictions on gun ownership get a nod from 56 percent.

1. I thought that something like 75% of the people under 30
nationwide voted for Obama?

I'm 28, so I'm on the high edge of that. My husband's the oldest of five, and all of his siblings are liberal. Although they certainly have more ability to have conservative religious friends and even discuss political issues with those friends than I do. But I think a large part of that is that they don't take it as seriously or feel as strongly as I do.
