Young voters are leaning Republican as Dems try to sell themselves as the ‘cool’ thing
NY Post ^ | 6/13/24 | Douglas Murray

Here’s a thought.

What if the kids are all right?

New polling shows young voters in the US are shrugging off their habit of voting left and actually thinking of voting Republican in November.

In almost equal numbers to their Democrat-voting contemporaries.

All this despite the daily diet of Democrats trying to throw everything at young voters to woo them.

Anyone who gets daily messages in their inbox from the Biden- Harris campaign will know how hard they are trying to make voting Democrat “cool” to young voters.

In the past few days alone this has included “direct messages” from George Clooney, Julia Roberts and — er — Jimmy Kimmel.

Which suggests the Biden-Harris campaigns idea of what the youth are after might be ever so slightly off.

Close in the polls Of course, this isn’t to say that a young voter has to be a Republican to be all right.

But it does suggest that voters in the 18-to-29 age-bracket might actually be thinking for themselves.

In 2024 USA, the term Young Voters is meaningless.

Almost half of the Young Voters are non-white.

Non-white USA young people vote at least 75% Democrat.

White USA young people vote 50%-55% Republican.

There is one heavyweight that hasn’t made any endorsements yet. I’ll be most interested how and when Taylor Swift will publicize her views. Then we’ll see how much the polling numbers shift, if at all, with younger voters.

Nothing says “cool” like an old feeb filling his grampers at the drop of a hat.

Shame on me for asking...BUT how old are Clooney and Julia?

My fav is Sandra Bullock, some faults, but she seems neutral to me.

She’s getting a little better looking in her maturity.

She was a horror in her mid-life years.

She will sink GOP hopes like Jordan used to sink the basketball.

“Rosa Luisa DeLauro[1][2] (/dɪˈlɔːroʊ/ dih-LOR-oh; born March 2, 1943) is an American politician who has been the U.S. representative for Connecticut’s 3rd congressional district since 1991. She is a member of the Democratic Party. The district is based in New Haven and includes most of its suburbs. DeLauro is the dean of Connecticut’s congressional delegation.[3]”

Conn. seems like a nice place until one sees who they elect.

That’s why the dem effort is coming up cold. I doubt many 18-29 year olds even know who Clooney, Roberts and Kimmel are.

They need to redouble their efforts and roll out De Niro, Streisand, and Fonda.

It is not the old Bush GOP. The Vichy Republican lounge lizard penny loafer Party set up to lose to the Democratic Progressives. Old GOP has been replaced by a Populist party of reform and conservatism. People want and need change—not just words but deeds. Trump will give them that.
