The key to today's special election in Massachusetts is how many people will turn out. Comparatively few turn out for a special election, so it all turns on whose base is more energized.

World's most easily hacked voting machineJudging from my family, the base is fairly sleepy. My son lives in Massachusetts, and just turned 18 a few months ago. I was on him right after his birthday: "Didja register to vote yet?"

"Register?" he said blankly. "You have to register?"

"That's right, " I said, with a vaguely threatening air. "Call the Mass Board of Elections, or whatever it's called there. They'll hook you up."
