Abstract

So basically I took four towns from Cincinnati, Ohio. I took all the poll locations by county and took the college towns out and compared the college towns to the rest of that town. I looked at the voter turnout, voters registered, number of people who showed up and the result in the votes on whether or not the issue was voted yes or no in each county. I then compared the county to the college counties. my question is to see if college towns received high voter turnout or higher voter turnout out for yes or no on the issues compared to all the other ones. I used a variable 1= yes a college town and 0 for no college town
