Support for Joe Biden eroding among younger voters
Voters under 30 generally favor the Democrats. Although the Democrats still enjoy an advantage with this age group, Joe Biden may have problems maintaining enough support from them. FiveThirtyEight’s poll tracker shows Biden with low approval even among the younger voters. This might impact Biden’s chances with younger voters for his bid for reelection in 2024, or for that of his allies in 2022.
From FiveThirtyEight:
In some ways, Biden’s decline among young Americans mirrors his standing overall. As Biden’s approval rating has fallen to 38 percent in FiveThirtyEight’s presidential approval tracker,1 18- to 29-year-olds’ approval of Biden has also slipped to 37 percent, with 53 percent disapproving of his job performance, based on data from FiveThirtyEight’s polling database.
John Della Volpe, director of polling for the Harvard Institute of Politics, told me Biden’s slide “is part of the broader disillusionment that Americans and young people are having about the country and the state of politics.” (Della Volpe consulted on Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign.) In fact, Harvard’s spring 2022 poll of 18- to 29-year-olds found that 36 percent of the respondents who disapproved of Biden (56 percent overall) said “ineffectiveness” best explained their disapproval.
As is true of other Americans, the economy seems to be an area where young Americans are particularly unhappy with Biden. In last week’s YouGov/The Economist survey, 34 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds approved of the way Biden was handling jobs and the economy, slightly lower than the 37 percent who approved of his economic performance overall. Similarly, polls released in mid-July by Fox News (of registered voters) and SSRS/CNN (of adults) found that less than 30 percent of American adults under 35 approved of Biden’s work on the economy (28 percent in Fox News, 25 percent in SSRS/CNN), compared with about 30 percent overall. Meanwhile, in Harvard’s spring 2022 poll, 74 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds said inflation had affected their personal finances “a lot” or “some,” and inflation has worsened since then. The Fox News and SSRS/CNN polls found that about 1 in 5 of those under 35 approved of Biden’s handling of inflation, compared with 25 percent overall.

BuTTTTT, some young people love him?

So, you are saying Daddy Joe was playing doctor with Doctor Jill before Doctor Jill was a doctor. 😃
Well, she did look like a high school hottie, maybe she was in the Medical Club in high school. 😉
His low popularity won’t make any difference at the polls. There are plenty of illegal immigrants, criminals, and dead people who will vote for him.
Hack Stone can’t do anything but laugh. The young and middle class were not worried, because Joe Biden was only going to put the screws to those making more than $400,000 and he is going to make them pay “their fair share”, despite the fact that the upper income pay almost all of the taxes that the federal government collects. You make things more expensive for manufacturers and landlords, they will pass the pain on to you.
And since this past week was the anniversary of the release of National Lampoon’s Animal House, this video is dedicated to all of the union members, college students, and middle income people who thought that Joe Biden would do them no harm when he was in office.
Let’s try this again.
Joe Biden is not worried. Hunter can still deliver the endorsements from the Stripper and Crack Dealer unions.
Not to mention he has a steady inflow of cash from the ChiComs and George Soros.
Dominion says “Hold my beer and watch this.”
I can believe that this POS grifting, lying, cheating, career politician that has NEVER done anything that didn’t benefit himself did get 81 million “votes”. You will NEVER convince me that the POS had 81 million people that actually voted for him.
Trump was not their target…We, The People were. He was just in the way. ELL SEE in 5.4.3.2..
Didn’t vote for him, won’t again.
With politicians make note of what they say but pay particular attention to what their policies do to “We the People”, for there you will find the politicians truth, good or bad.
Trying to figure out how Pedo Joe…who was senile and decrepit in 2020, was the choice of the ‘young’, when he had been in power in DC longer than most of his 81 million supposed voters had been alive.
Because he promised tons of free shit to the special snowflakes.
Dominion turned 18 in 2020.
I believe trust in Joe dropped below gas station sushi a few weeks ago.
There’s ONE population demographic where D-rats outpoll Conservatives and GOP Candidates, it’s among high school dropouts. Anyone surprised?
