Biden and Trump Try to Keep Up with Young Voters

February 22, 2024 · 6:46 am ET · Leave a Comment

“President Biden, 81, and former President Trump, 77, are stepping up their courtship of disillusioned and disinterested Gen Z and Millennial voters, tapping into social media, sneaker fashion and other cultural touchstones to try to reach the coveted 18-34 age group,” Axios reports.

“Young voters made up about 17% of the electorate in 2020 — and were especially key for Biden, supporting the Democrat by wide margins.”

“But this year, many are unenthused by the likely Biden-Trump rematch — and polls suggest the Israel-Hamas war has helped Trump slice into Biden’s margin among voters 18-34.”
