Ninety percent of MSU students voted in the November presidential election - more than twice the national average for college-aged individuals, according to a study released Wednesday. The online survey, conducted by the MSU Institute for Public Policy and Social Research, polled more than 1,200 undergraduate and graduate students at MSU. Some political experts are surprised that the numbers were so high. "That's pretty remarkable," said Mark Kornbluh, history department chairperson and author of the book "Why America Stopped Voting." "Ninety percent turnout is striking for any group, but especially for college students, who have traditionally voted in lower numbers," he said. The high turnout figures even amazed some campus groups that led get-out-the-vote drives before the election. "Frankly, I was surprised by the results," said Landon Bartley, an urban planning graduate student and member of YouVote.
