I hope all of you young voters actually get out and vote

I want to know what’s wrong with the ones who don’t support Harris. Self loathing? Pain fetish?

Which is awesome, but we need to keep some perspective.
In the 2020 election, the 18-29 voting block comprised 17% of the total vote, with the 30-64 blocks contributing 56% of the total vote.
We have to see more than 17% this time around.

64-32% in favor of Harris. This is landslide territory and you really do love to see it, especially late in the summer.

..and Indiana went blue for the slightest HINT of a second. I had hope. That hope was lost. The map of 270towin.com. is fun to watch!

But the NYT thinks it’s actually only a small difference and that Trump gained over 10 points in the youth vote compared to how he ran against Biden.
rabid89 on
Yeah but 18-24 yr old group only votes like 20-25% of the time. It’s pathetic.Â
It’s hard to get them to care and vote.

I don’t care as long as they don’t get their assess to the polling booth.

This has been the case since time immemorial. The youngest generation has always had the power to steer this country into whatever direction with their votes, but every election cycle, they stay at home while the oldest generation outvotes them into oblivion.
Do whatever it takes to get out there.

Traditionally the lowest turnout demographic. Let’s hope for change
ArtDSellers on
Yeah, but will they show up?
JackSpadesSI on
I’ll be excited when they show up and do their civic duty: VOTE!

Too low

All they have to do now is withstand the GOP suppression efforts geared explicitly towards young voters. Then they can help flush the orange turd in November. God speed youngsters, god speed.

Clearly didn’t reach enough of those New York Times / Siena young voters.

Only about half of 18-24 year olds voted in 2020. National average was 66%.

Young voters have the opportunity to take part in America’s a first historical election.
The USA having its first female president is a big deal, and you get to be the first in history only once.
There will be other Obama’s, there will be other Trump’s, and there will be other Harris’s and so this is why it’s important to be part of the firsts and vote.

The youth have never really voted before. I don’t have much faith they will this time either. Would love to be proved wrong.
jb4647 on
The twist is young people don’t vote as much older folks. It should be reversed. Young people are going to exist in the future a lot longer than the oldsters
Travelerdude on
If ever there was an election where young voters should participate, this one is it. You have a choice to vote an old man past his expiration date or a younger woman in her prime.

Vooooooooote
Check to verify *today* that you are registered. Go online and look at the ballot ahead of time. See when early voting begins and look into going when it’s convenient and available for you.
And talk to your friends about it. I live in a very rural (red) area and the diehard Trump folk talk about voting every minute of every day to everyone around them. They’ll drag family members who can’t even dress themselves into the polls on election day and make sure they vote for their guy. You have to stand up to them.

For perspective Biden and Trump were 60% and 36% with 18-29 in the 2020 election. So an improvement if this actually ends up being the case.

In 2020, this group had the highest youth voting rate ever recorded. They vote more than other generations did at their age. That is the starting point for Gen Z. Really excited and proud of my peers! We got this!

We are counting on you young voters! You could be saving the 258 years of democratic freedom we have enjoyed…and it’s time for us to push towards something better than this cesspool
OccidoViper on
Thats great but hopefully they turn out to vote. Democrats always do well among young voters. The problem is the young voter group is usually the least likely to vote. So vote!!
GlowstickConsumption on
Go vote. If you’re reading this message, ask four people you know to vote. Ask them to ask two people to vote as well. And consider voting even for local votes. Don’t just vote once for a president. Keep squeezing the bad blood out of the system. But for now, just handle this and ask others to help as well. You deserve it, and women and rest of the world.
bookemmalane on
Not surprising—young voters are leaning heavily towards Harris. This generation values progressive policies, and it shows in the numbers
neoikon on
Now make sure you are registered and go out and VOTE!
Early voting counts the same as voting on election day. Avoid the crowds! Just go VOTE!
zeroone on
The best way to predict the outcome is to make it happen. See the voter registration resources link above. Figure out where you’ll be living in November. Register to vote. Get your IDs together. Then pick who you want to win.

Queue Trumps next speech opening line “How do you do, fellow kids”
pdxb3 on
Make it your mission to help some of these young people get registered, show them online or print them off a sample ballot to look at so they understand what they’ll be doing. Tell them how the process works. And finally help get them there if they need a ride, and make sure they don’t just let it slide. Take advantage of your state’s early voting!

What demo does Trump have locked down?
only-vans-gal on
Every young woman should be thinking: “If I’m someday pregnant and it’s ectopic or has major medical issues, there’s one party who won’t let me have an abortion until my life’s in danger, and maybe not even then.”
Young men should be thinking the same about all their female friends and family.

Been saying this forever and screaming it since Harris took Biden’s place: This election will come down to turnout, and primarily depend on the turnout of young, liberal voters.
You want the government to start caring more about the things you care about (climate change, LGBT rights, building the middle class instead of hoping shit trickles down, fighting corporate price gouging and tax evasion, etc.)? This is is. This is your chance and it happens in the voting booth, not on social media.

Polls don’t matter. GO VOTE!!!
highinthemountains on
Remember that the only polls that matter are the ones that have ballot boxes at them. Register and check your registration at vote.gov Vote on Roevember 5th
If tRump is elected he will be declared incompetent, Amendment 25 will be invoked and JD will be prez. JD is deeply in bed with the Heritage Foundation and will implement Project 2025. VOTE!

Because Trump offers young people nothing! Just goodbye rights and you get to foot the bill for billionaires.

I hope they actually vote.

They better vote now if not they may never get the chance. Republicans will try to tie voting to owning property but will make owning property impossible for the youth of today.
