It found that just one-third of all young Americans said they would back Biden if the election was held at the time the survey was conducted. The poll also reflects a virtual tie in the race. Biden leads former President Donald Trump by just two points, and 34% of respondents are currently backing a third-party candidate or said they would support “someone else.”

Plus, despite speculation over how U.S. support for Israel may negatively affect Biden’s youth coalition, the poll found that the war in Gaza is not the top voting issue for most young Americans. Instead, economic concerns, particularly over inflation, remain front and center.

    It’s incredibly frustrating seeing that we’re doing a slow march to the cliff and the Biden administration and Democratic Party don’t seem to actually care. We’re all screaming why Biden is doing horribly with voters and there’s no action. Just “but Trump”.
