As the race reaches the home stretch, the campaigns allocate more of their resources to making sure their supporters reach the polls on Election Day. The McCain campaign enjoys a distinct advantage with regard to turnout: McCain�s supporters have had more electoral experience than Obama�s. By 65 percent to 51 percent, for example, McCain voters are more likely than Obama voters to say they follow government and public affairs �most of the time, whether there�s an election going on or not.� McCain voters are also more likely to say they always or nearly always vote and they have voted in a presidential or congressional election before. In part, these differences reflect the fact that McCain voters are older and wealthier, on average, than Obama supporters. The differences are important because engagement with politics and experience with elections facilitate voting.
