Young voters overwhelmingly say they would support President Biden over former President Trump in a hypothetical head-to-head match-up if the 2024 presidential election were held today, according to a poll released Wednesday.

In the Economist/YouGov poll — conducted via web-based interviews Dec. 16-18 — more than half (53 percent) of registered voters under 30 said they would support Biden, and less than a quarter (24 percent) said they would support Trump.

Another 10 percent said they would support another candidate, 4 percent said they were not sure, and 9 percent said they wouldn’t vote.

    I’m no longer entertaining this perspective since people like you never have anything bad to say about people who voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries.

    How exactly do you intend to win future primaries and elections without any of these voters? You have endless energy to criticize moderates about how they need to earn your vote and be higher quality candidates and represent you – what about leftist candidates?

    As long as you hold this double standard, you’re not going to go anywhere. Moderate voters are not obedient little sheep, and progressive candidates are not entitled to moderate votes. If it isn’t progressives’ fault when moderates lose, then it isn’t moderates’ fault when progressives lose.

      The same way they intended to win 2024 while fucking us over.
