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.

    Mail-in-votes in 2020 made voting easier. But still, voter turnout among young Americans could do better if you compare voter turnout with other countries.

      Oh trust me, we won’t be showing up for Biden in 2024. His obvious disdain for anyone under the age of 65 made sure of that.

          Fucked the BBB, student loan forgiveness, weed legalization and getting healthcare insurance costs down. Currently using the Treasury and the Federal Reserve to fight American workers. Fucked over the rail workers by blocking the strike. Gave the most limp dicked support to the UAW. And currently supporting Israel against our wishes.

            There needs to be another Roosevelt. Left leaning and a shrewd political operator.
