Carney: I Can’t Tell You How Many Young People Have Enrolled in ObamaCare

‘The data is not available yet ...’

KARL: “Jay, we learned -- was it 2.1 million people have enrolled through the marketplaces? Can you tell us how many of those people are young people? How many are in that 18-34 demographic?”
CARNEY: “What I can tell you is the demographic data isn't available yet, but I know that CMS plans to make that data available as soon as possible. Several states who are running their own marketplaces are reporting that a good mix of people are signing up, and that's important when we talk about what the overall goals here are for March 31st, the end of open enrollment. The mix is really a key element to this, and when we have the demographic data to provide, we being the Administration, CMS in particular, we will provide it, but we don't have it at this point.”
