Young voters overwhelmingly say they would support President Biden over former President Trump in a hypothetical head-to-head match-up if the 2024 presidential election were held today, according to a poll released Wednesday.

In the Economist/YouGov poll — conducted via web-based interviews Dec. 16-18 — more than half (53 percent) of registered voters under 30 said they would support Biden, and less than a quarter (24 percent) said they would support Trump.

Another 10 percent said they would support another candidate, 4 percent said they were not sure, and 9 percent said they wouldn’t vote.

Well well well. Looks like we finally got a poll that wasn't conducted by people calling a boomer's landline at 2pm.

Give those polls will start trending towards Biden. The Democrats are ensuring they keep pumping up Trump because they know how terrible he is. Trump is the easiest to beat but you have to wipe the floor with him. He is such a threat that even progressives will put aside their differences and vote Biden.

There is a distinct possibility the Supreme Court prevents Trump from running with this Colorado case in which case Biden is going to get his butt handed to him by Haley.

This just sucks.

Colorado is a solid blue state. There is zero chance of Haley beating Biden here.

I meant when this goes to the National Supreme Court.

We got a poll that centrists won't make up stories about in order to dismiss it in vaguely ageist terms.
