As the United States approaches its most consequential presidential election in generations, Joe Biden has a major problem: young people don’t want to vote for him.
Current polling shows that although Biden is leading Trump, voters are not necessarily convinced he can win. In particular, young people tend to view Biden unfavorably, even though they prefer him to Trump.
Public opinion may hold that Biden, despite his poor favorability ratings, is the lesser of evils and ought to prevail against the greater evil, Trump – but that might not necessarily translate into voter turnout in swing districts and states, crucial to winning electoral votes.
