The RNC has teamed up with Survey Monkey in an effort to discover what costume Republicans will have to don in order to get young people to vote for them. Would you vote for a candidate you found to be nice? Young? Gay? Brown? I kid you not, 'nice' is in one of the questions. And, of course there are a couple of 'mandatory' questions that are impossible to answer without adding comments down in the bottom field.
They ask at the top of the survey that only those under thirty participate. So, if you're young, or young at heart, you may want to run over there and help them out. Heck, I'm only 29 and some few months, myself.

Where are they going to find
Where are they going to find "nice" candidates in the GOP? Oh, wait. That Haslam boy. He's a nice young man.
If they're polling young
If they're polling young Republican voters I'm afraid they may not get enough participation to have a statistically valid sample.
Did I just see that?

The North Carolina Republican
The North Carolina Republican super-majority is reaching out to the youth vote too - with a big stick. Would you vote for a Republican if said Republican were nice and allowed you to, you know, actually vote?
Republicans Pitching for Young Voters Thru Survey
I hope this survey doesn't represent the party, given its numerous typos, and confusing questions. As a survey it really doesn't get much data that can be analyzed.
There is no way of knowing if
(in reply to HipHopSays)
There is no way of knowing if it reached its target audience either.
This is no survey; this is Comedy Central fodder.
