Music Banter - Political Discussions for "Adults"

because that's basically it

all this talk and it's just that old people are old

ofc the internet is oversampling the young so it's easy to say "where are the Biden voters?"

Clearly the dumbest take.

If Trump can dodge the draft, he can dodge a mob. :love:

the margin Bernie wins the youth vote by is 95% in some places

Yeah but that doesn't explain why he won California over Biden or some of these other states. If youth turnout is uniformly low, then that means he's being propelled primarily by other demographics.

took me 3 minutes because I didn't try to use one of the polling stations that was gonna be packed (and I went in the middle of the day)

you can usually call elections very quickly with a small sample size I think similar to how polling works

anecdotally I have not talked to a single Biden supporter...because everyone I know is under 35

Yeah , though this is assuming their politics never change throughout their lifetime

I do think the potential for a Bernie type candidate to win is increasing over time... But as of now I just am not aware of who that could be.

when I voted for Hillary I was in a swing state and felt good about electing (lol) the first female president even though she wasn't my first choice

I think this is considered a swing state but my rationalization for skipping it is always that one vote doesn't matter and also if Biden is in I don't really want him to win. Same with Hillary. Will probably lie and tell my family I voted though.
