It is not illegal to say who you voted for but most people don't tell anyone so that they won't change their mind about who they will vote for.

For example, a person wants to vote for Romney. He tells his best friend but his best friend thinks that Obama is better. So he tries to convince him to change his mind and that is what most people don't like.

How many young people voted in the 2010 UK general election?

The United Kingdom does not record this kind of information about elections. According to Ipsos-MORI, 44% of people aged 18 - 24 voted in the 2010 parliamentary general election, based on an exit poll survey of 10,000 people. The margin of error of the survey is +/-0.98pp, meaning that we can say with reasonable confidence between 43% and 45% of people aged 18 - 24 voted.


Is rap music responsible for the first US black president?

NO. I would say that rap music had very little influence on the election of Obama as President. It is no doubt true that most of the devotees of rap voted for him, if they voted, but they would have voted for any black candidate, if they voted. Obama won because he was able to articulate the Democrat's position and convince people that he was the one most able to do something to solve the problems of the country.

When was the first presidential election held and who was elected?

It is customary to say that the first Presidential election was in 1789 and that George Washington won. However, the actual first Presidential election was in 1774, and was when the members of the Continental Congress voted Peyton Randolph as President. While that was more a role of a presiding officer, the title was President, and it was by an election. As was also the case with at least 10 other men who held that office, including John Hancock.


How many registered republicans in the US?

The American political parties, including the Democratic Party and the Republican parties are actually each 50 political parties. The nature of political parties in the United States is a function of each of the 50 states. So there is a Texas Democratic party and a Nebraska Democratic party and a Republican New York party and so on. Each state constructs its own rules for political parties within the borders of that state.Unfortunately for your question not all of the states have a system that registers voters in one political party or the other. So you have what is called an "open primary." That means that a registered voter does not declare his or her party affiliation when he or she registers, but when he or she votes in the party primary.For example in Texas you could wake up on primary election day (not the general election day) and decide which party primary you wish to vote in. It is your choice. After you vote, say in the Republican Party primary your voter registration certificate is stamped "Republican." That stamp has very little meaning unless the party has another primary election in the time before you get a new voter registration card (usually each year.)And on the general election day, usually the first Tuesday in November, you can still vote for whichever candidates you choose. It is a secret ballot.The best measure for Democrats and Republicans is probably the General Election Day for President of the United States every four years. In the last election 52% voted Democratic and 47% (ironic, huh?) voted Republican.In the 2012 general election 65,907,213 persons voted Democratic and60,931,767 voted Republican.Of course, in the United States of America we do not elect our President by popular vote. What really counts is the electoral college. And that is the answer to another question.
