There's zero evidence that Biden will turn out the Youth Vote in any real way. He got 5% of voters under 30 in California, and just 9% of the 30-to-44s. The state he did the best in with young voters (Virginia) was able to see him only get 26% of under-30s, Disastrous data highlighting his horrible standing with young voters.
They didn't come out as much as expected for Warren & Sanders - but we think they are going to all of a sudden come out for Joe Biden? Obama was was a winner in large-part because of his ability to bring out young voters and excite the electorate. Biden may be co-opting the Obama brand -- but he ain't no Barack Obama. Expect depressed turnout.
Hope there's enough of these center-right "moderates" that the party has been catering to for decades. But if history repeats itself, November will be a very bad day for Biden and those that worked tirelessly and collaboratively to crown him the nominee.
