New numbers tell a whole different story about the Biden youth vote in 2024
You have heard, I believe, all these doom and gloom fake pundits with their fake polls try to convince you young voters have abandoned Democrats forever! Yeah? Really? Well — someone must have forgot to tell the Circle Pre-2024 election Youth Survey.
This survey was conducted by The center for information & research on Civic learning and engagement. They’re a non-partisan group and their whole focus is on youth engagement. And guess what? Their findings contradict what the fake pundits say. What a shocker!
The people surveyed were 18-34 in age. The majority — almost 60 percent say they will vote in the 2024 election. And 57% say they are “extremely likely to vote.” Also 15 percent say they are “fairly likely to vote.”
The voters show more support for Democrats than Republicans. Over fifty percent support Democrats. Republicans have youth support at 30%. Guns. Climate Change. Mental health issues. Abortion. Good paying jobs. These are all issues the young voters are tapped into.
The survey did find that the youth LESS likely to vote include: rural non-white youth, and youth without college degrees. And now to quote one line which is devastating for republicans: “Our data reveals that young people, especially those who report they’re most likely to cast a ballot in 2024, still prefer a Democratic candidate by a wide margin.”
REALLY?! But wait! What about all the noise from the peanut gallery telling us Democrats were DOOMED? It’s called ratings. Ignore it. If you are worried, print out this survey and pin it to your wall. This is just a snapshot in time and we must put in the work. But there is no reason to think, if we do put in the work, that we can’t win.
