A new well publicized poll from Harvard University is the latest to indicate rising support for former President Trump among the nation's youngest voters, who traditionally are a key part of the Democratic Party's base. President Biden leads his Republican challenger 45%-37% among people ages 18 to 29 in a Harvard Youth Poll released early Thursday by the Harvard Kennedy School Institute of Politics. Sixteen percent of those questioned were undecided.
According to the survey, Biden stands at 43%, Trump 30%, Democrat turned independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at 8%, Green Party candidate Jill Stein at 4% and independent Cornel West at 2%. The poll suggests Trump's made major gains among young male voters. 'Democrats have lost significant ground with young men,' the poll's release highlighted. The president leads among women by 33 points in the poll, but his advantage among men is just six points.
The gap between young men’s and young women’s political preferences is pronounced,' polling director for the Harvard Kennedy School Institute of Politics John Della Volpe emphasized. He also cautioned to 'make no mistake, this is a different youth electorate than we saw in 2020 and 2022.' The poll also indicated that younger voters supporting Trump are much more enthusiastic about the former president than Biden voters are about the current president.
