    You've assured us on at least three occasions that there was going to be a decline in the youth vote in the 2020 election:

    "The youth vote will be WAY down."

    Just checking back to see if you're still confident about that prediction, old chap?



    Absentee and Early Voting by Youth in the 2020 Election

    October 26, 2020
    In Florida, North Carolina, Maine, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, early votes cast by youth have already exceeded the 2016 margin of victory in that state's presidential race.

    Participation in this year’s presidential election is on the rise among young voters ages 18-29 and one study concludes the cohort could play a major part in 14 key states that may decide the presidency and control of the United States Senate.

    “As of Oct. 21, more than 3 million young people have already cast ballots, including over 2 million in more than a dozen key states like the electoral battlegrounds where our Youth Electoral Significance Index highlights that youth can have a decisive impact on results,” the report by Tufts University’s Center for Information and Research on Civil Learning and Engagement found.

    The report shows big gains in the youth vote already over 2016 when just 39% of eligible young people cast ballots.
