Just a heads up: the last sentence is also at the end of the 5th graf.
It's sad that professors have to offer extra credit as incentive for students to vote, but good for them for taking the time to make sure students are informed about the issues.
This story is well-referenced and has a lot of sources. Good job! Although it sucks that one person quoted doesn't think social security is an issue. I can't imagine what the world would be like now if the elderly in the population expressed sentiments like that when they were our age. I think people won't be so apathetic if social security runs out when we're elderly.
Also what's up with Clinton's campaign office withdrawing participation the morning of? That's kind of like a party foul.
