General Discussion

Young voters are the largest untapped pool of voters in the nation, growing by around 4 million/year.

Although their turn out is unpredictable, when they do vote, they predictably vote for Democrats by a 2 to 1 margin over republicans nationally.

So, when someone like Mamdani can generate enthusiastic turnout among young voters - something like 37,000 new voters registered in NYC in the final week of the campaign specifically to vote for Mamdani- Dems should sit up and take notice.

Whoever can inspire and motivate young voters to show up and vote, and maintain that motivation through good governance, will control all branches of the government for generations.
