The political ground is shaking ahead of November's presidential election, yet some are already sketching out the post-election landscape. Young voters have new power, not only from making up a larger slice of the electorate, but for their impact on intra-party discourse.
We surveyed students on who they might consider voting for in the next presidential cycle (other than Donald Trump or Joe Biden). The results mark the first score in the battle for youth votes in a cycle where Gen Z will make up an even bigger share of the electorate.
Here's what we found.
