<div>The granite monument at the head of the parking lot commemorates the services of Colonel Taddeusz Kosciuszko, the young Polish engineer who laid out the American line. The stone obelisk west of the parking lot is a memorial to the American dead, placed here by the Daughters of the American Revolution.</div><div></div><div></div><div>His importance in the series is evidenced in his presence in the titles of the episodes, having all of them a reference to the color "red" (except for "Pilot"). The episodes succeeding his death, starting with "My Blue Heaven" reference other colors besides red. The first five season finales and mid-season finales also center around him.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>young john on colors mp3 download</div><div></div><div>Download File: https://t.co/oZb1G5CJn2 </div><div></div><div></div><div>Red John appears to be a Caucasian male of average height. Since his first known killings date back to 1988 (Jane says he is at least between 20 and 30 during 1988), Red John is probably at least 45 and 54 by 2013. In "Red Rover, Red Rover", a young girl named Haley told Jane that RJ was white, wore a baseball cap and had an odd voice. Similarly, Red John speaks with a high-pitched voice throughout the series. From the care Red John has taken to elude the authorities, the possibility cannot be ruled out that he was using a voice-altering device, espcially in "The Crimson Hat" and "The Desert Rose" when he talks over the phone. In the Red John", McAllister uses the voice again when talking to Patrick, revealing that it was just a simple change in his voice he did to mask his identity.</div><div></div><div></div><div>In 2004, a young man and alcoholic named Michael Kirkland joined Red John as one of his accomplices, and then went missing. Although it was never proved, his twin brother Robert Kirkland thought that Red John had killed him, and so he began to hunt down RJ out of revenge, much like Jane did.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The next copycats revealed in the series were Ruth, Dylan and Wesley Blankfein. Ruth and Dylan were teenage serial killers who filmed gore movies using real killings, attributing them to Red John and copying his modus operandi. Wesley Blankfein was a young boy who had been forced to participate in the killings because his mother had been kidnapped by the other two.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Election Day served as the culmination of an unprecedented election cycle shaped by the COVID-19 pandemic, a nationwide movement for racial justice, and the boundless energy of young people who made their voices heard in the streets and at the ballot box. Our research reveals that young voters increased their turnout in 2020; they made the difference in key battleground states; and the participation and overwhelming support for President-elect Joe Biden from youth of color was one of the defining elements of the election.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Note: The analysis below reflects our youth voter turnout estimate based on data immediately available in the days and weeks after the 2020 Election Day. In Spring 2021, based on voter files from 40+ states, we revised our estimate of young people's electoral participation to 50%. Read more.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Our calculations, based on votes counted as of November 18, suggest that 52%-55% of voting-eligible young people, ages 18-29, cast a ballot in the 2020 presidential election. Using the same methodology and data from a week after the election in 2016, we had previously estimated that youth voter turnout in 2016 was 42-44%.</div><div></div><div></div><div>At a time of historic uncertainty, when the nation confronts a pandemic and economic hardship, young people turned out in large numbers across the country and were instrumental in the victory of President-elect Joe Biden and the first female Vice President-elect.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>As has been the case in recent elections, young people chose differently than older voters. Voters ages 30-44 favored Biden by 11 points, and voters over 45 split their support fairly evenly between both candidates but favored Trump by 3 percentage points.</div><div></div><div></div><div>There were also major differences by race/ethnicity. Young White voters preferred Biden by 6 points (51% vs. 45%). Black, Asian, and Latino voters, respectively, supported Biden by overwhelming margins of 77, 68, and 49 percentage points. And, within those differences by race/ethnicity, there are differences by gender. For example, young White men supported President Trump by 6 points (51% vs 45%), while young white women supported Biden over Trump by 13 points: 55% to 42%.</div><div></div><div></div><div>A new CIRCLE analysis of AP VoteCast by The Associated Press allows us to paint a fuller picture of how and when youth voted in 2020 and when they decided who to vote for, both in comparison to older voters and to their same-age peers of a different race/ethnicity. We find that 70% of young people reported voting early/absentee and 30% reported voting on Election Day. Youth were more likely to cast a ballot early in person or by absentee ballot than voters ages 30-44 (65% early) and about the same as voters ages 45-64. Voters aged 65+ voted early or absentee at the highest rate (79%), perhaps due to concerns about their higher vulnerability to COVID-19.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Throughout the election cycle we underscored the importance of access to information about processes like vote by mail that may have been new or unfamiliar to young voters, and the challenges that would pose for groups like youth of color, youth who do not have any college experience, and others that have been traditionally marginalized in civic life. This new analysis of 2020 voters finds that, indeed, young people without any college experience voted early/absentee at a slightly lower rate (66%) than their peers with higher educational attainment. Among young white voters, 61% of those without college experience voted early/absentee, compared to 66% of youth with some college experience (no degree) and 73% of college graduates.</div><div></div><div></div><div>It is important to note this method of aggregating county-level candidate support data will not reflect the overall support for Biden because he won relatively few counties across all three states, but the counties he won had larger populations. Additionally, urban areas/counties tend to have a higher proportion of young people, and urban areas tend to support Democratic candidates, so it is likely that the presence of youth is just one of many contributors to county-level differences in candidate support.</div><div></div><div></div><div>In our analysis of young voters, we often focus on college experience because higher education can expose young people to a range of important learning opportunities, networks, and pathways into civic and political experiences. But access to higher education can be inequitable, thereby both reflecting and reinforcing other civic inequities among youth.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Since the 2016 election, many journalists and political observers have focused on sometimes substantial differences in vote choice by educational attainment. In 2020, the vote choice of young voters (ages 18-29) varied by educational attainment and race/ethnicity: the only subgroup of youth in which a majority indicated they voted for President Trump were young white voters without college experience: 57% supported the President to 41% for President-elect Biden. By contrast, a majority of both Black youth (88%) and Latino youth (73%) without college experience voted for Biden. White youth with a college degree also preferred Biden, 63% to 34%, while Black (87%) and Latino (77%) college graduates also supported Biden by even higher margins.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Across the country, young voters were pivotal in local, state, and national elections in 2020, turning out to the polls and sending mail-in ballots in record numbers. Black youth in particular were a crucial voting bloc, as their support for Joe Biden helped the President-elect carry key swing states. In Georgia, for instance, young Black voters helped Biden win a state that had not voted Democratic in almost 30 years: 90% of Black youth in Georgia voted for Biden (compared to 8% for President Trump), and Biden won Georgia counties with a high proportion of Black youth by an average of 26 percentage points more than across the state as a whole.</div><div></div><div></div><div>In this CIRCLE analysis of AP VoteCast data from the Associated Press, we dive deeper into voting patterns and preferences of Black youth. One major highlight: the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the protests against police violence have shaped how young Black voters view issues and decide on candidates for whom to vote.</div><div></div><div></div><div>While young people overall preferred Biden by an almost 2-to-1 margin, the support for Biden among Black youth was even more staggering: almost 9 in 10 (87%) of young Black voters nationally cast a ballot for Biden while just 1 in 10 (10%) voted for Trump. This was the highest support for Biden among young people of all racial/ethnic groups, slightly above Asian youth (83%) and Latino youth (73%), and 36 points higher than White youth (51%). Notably, there were differences between young Black men and young Black women in the electorate: young Black women voted for Biden at a slightly higher rate than young Black men (90% to 84%) and were also more likely to say the country was on the wrong track (81% to 68%).</div><div></div><div></div><div>But the data reveals a generational shift in the vote choice of Cuban-Americans, with the youngest group (ages 18-29) offering Biden overwhelming support, 75% to 23%, that equaled the vote choice of young Latinos of Mexican and Central American origin/heritage. This suggests that, as with other racial/ethnic groups, younger and older voters have different lived experiences within politics that influence their vote choice.</div><div></div><div></div><div>While Asian-American voters in general supported Biden, young Asian-Americans supported the President-elect by a 20-point higher margin: 83% among ages 18-29, compared to 63% from ages 45-64 and 65% from ages 65+. Young Asian-American women supported Biden the most (86%), and their vote choice stands out in comparison to Asian-American women ages 65+, 59% of whom voted for Biden. Moreover, only 9% of young Asian-American women supported President Trump, compared to 20% of young Asian-American men.</div><div></div><div></div><div>For young Asian-American voters, the COVID-19 pandemic is the most important issue facing the country. About half (47%) rated the pandemic as the highest priority, followed by healthcare (14%), the economy and jobs (13%), and racism (11%).</div><div></div><div> df19127ead</div>
