Young voting age Facebook users really enjoy labeling and classifying themselves and filling out all the fields offered to them in their Info sections. When they got to "Political Beliefs" and didn't know what to put, they let their peers and advertisements decide this for them.
So given the option between a sleek, younger "hip liberal" and a very frightening dinosaur dust mummy, they made the choice any young person would.

Conclusion: Twelve of them showed up to vote, which is a record for the demographic and Obama became president.
