Young voters right now overwhelmingly prefer Biden: The Economist/YouGov poll
thehill.com

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.

Are you suggesting Trump is a valid choice?

Third party or no vote is a valid choice.

Plenty of other options out there.

That's weird, that would be the same thing Russian propaganda tells me to do.

First-past-the-post realistically cannot support more than a two-party system, and I will always vote for the candidate to the left, who just happens to be Joe Biden. Not voting and third parties get us Trump.

I'm sorry is Joe Biden literally committing genocide Russian propaganda to you? Are you denying that Joe Biden is committing genocide right now?

I deny that Joe Biden is literally committing genocide right now.

If I had to guess he's probably just gotten through with his daily post-brunch game of Backgammon.

3rd party or no vote in a 2 party FPTP system is a vote for the candidate polling higher. You're just throwing your right to vote away.

If you can only vote for a Nazi then you have already thrown away your voting rights.
