Armani? Posted September 24 Posted September 24 Not looking good for Trump's campaign. The narrative before Biden dropped & a little after was making substantial inroads with young men but it's swung back to Kamala/Dems 2

Like girl why don't we get a federal day to vote 💀 You sound really ignorant with this comment. There are so many ways to vote besides voting on actual election day. A majority of states do give time off to go and vote as well. Very few young people work 12+ hour shifts, the average time open for polls in each state. If someone wants* to vote, they will find a way without using a job as an excuse. *the key word

The narrative before Biden dropped & a little after was making substantial inroads with young men but it's swung back to Kamala/Dems We can look at the big, front-facing numbers all we want; +5 here, +2 there, but what really matters are these granular stats showing Kamala matching or coming close to matching Biden in 2020 and tying or outperforming Trump in very key, often Republican-loyal metrics. Was the answer all along simply not nominating an octogenarian? 3

Like girl why don't we get a federal day to vote 💀 It's because older people grew up during time periods when they saw real-life consequences of voting or not voting. They simply understand the importance. I feel like we're kind of getting back into that, but it's a slow process. 5

FameFatale Posted September 24 Posted September 24 Voting access in my state is the pits. My sister was in college trying to vote in the 2016 election and she had to physically go up to the courthouse and fill out a ballot and show proof she was a college student who wouldn't be in town on election day. They wouldn't let her do mail in voting because she wasn't disabled or over 65. 1
WildAmerican Posted September 24 Posted September 24 ahhh the daily pollarcoaster, something always makes me feel good and something always makes me feel bad lol if she wins, i do think she's gonna have a HARD first term bc she likely won't have either the House and/or the Senate, but cross that bridge, as they say 1
dabunique Posted September 24 Posted September 24 u kno i always worry about my Florida in 2008, when Obama flipped da state, we had people in long lines waiting to vote after 7 pm i'm scared dat this year might be sumthin like this and DeSantis will send forces to prevent this

A lot of people are uninformed on how to vote or even check their voter registration. Trust me , I know. I have been making all my younger friends vote and they're so confused, granted you're correct that they seemingly don't care that much. But a know many people who work huge shifts (bartenders) or two jobs in one day and I think only 28(?) states offer time off to vote. It's ridiculous this isn't a federal day for us to vote and get paid. I am not ignorant, and obviously that isn't the main or only reason young people don't vote that much. I was being silly, but I still think what I said holds some truth. It is a combination of disinformation or lack of voter information combined with the crazy work hours in America AND young people's nihilism Sorry!

I worked 55-60 hours a week just to get by for two years when I was 24-26 and I don't even have anyone to care for other than myself. Imagine a young single person with kid. I know quite a few people who work those hours still. American work hours are nuts, the least our federal government can do is give us a paid hour or two to vote be for real. luv you tho queen Edited September 24 by Lil Mistee

But the main point is to stave off any harm Trump and the GOP could do. It's stupid, but it's where we're at. 3 1

It was hell. I remember once not having a single day off for 3 months, so I know. That said, I was one of the few who was that ambitious, but I am where I am now because of that hard work. Too many people coast these days. I disagree that so many young people are working so much that they cannot find time to vote. It's an excuse. 1

Sannie Posted September 24 Posted September 24 For those worried about election certification shenanigans. I don't trust Kemp, but we don't *need* GA. NC does have a Republican veto-proof majority in their legislature so that sucks. Rust Belt + NV is the way to go. 3
