While I suppose it depends on how strongly they feel about what they're voting for, I would say B or D. The corporate executive likes to vote to make sure he can stay wealthy. The computer programmer is young and wants to see if he can improve his life now that he's out on his own. The teenager probably thinks his vote doesn't count or the government fixes the elections. The college graduate is too busy unpacking if he JUST moved to a new state.

As a general rule, the likelihood of voting increases with age and intelligence.
So the 50-year old corporate executive is most likely to vote of those listed.
The 19-year old is least likely to vote even though you have profiled him/her as a complainer about government.
I know for sure this is true from TWO sources:
Statistics I have often seen through life.
My own personal experience with people, both young and older.

i'll go with A. being newly eligible to vote, the appeal to do so is there. hopefully, an 19 year old would have learned (recently graduated) that one way to change existing policies and practices is to VOTE for someone who is promising GOOD CHANGE.

i'd say the 50-year-previous. As a company authorities, s/he likely concerns extra about taxes (own investments, probable even employer taxes in the journey that they look a intense sufficient authorities). As s/he nears retirement, taxes and the social safe practices equipment will likely develop into even extra of an subject for him/her.

I would say C as well, but maybe A would as well. I first voted at 19, because of the same reason.

I think it is D, older people tend to vote more because I think they realize how important it is to be counted.
