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.

    Which is why republicans are trying so hard to push the idea of not being able to vote until you’re much older.

    cause they want to cut off the youth vote, because they’d rather disenfranchise tens of millions and get rid of democracy than risk having to change their positions.

      The youth vote, the minority vote, the poor vote, the mail-in vote… Really they just don’t seem to like the concept of voting altogether
