    That is A problem, but not the play one.

    And who elects the old white politicians?

    How do those who want to keep old white politicians in power influence the electorate?

        Young voters are the easiest to sway and move from not voting to the polls.

        Want to push an agenda? Target young voters and get them to the polls. Exactly what this campaign is trying to do.

            I don’t have stats handy to back it up but wasn’t the young male voting block part of what got trump re-elected? If you hit anyone with the right propoganda enough it’ll start to be effective. That voting block appears to have moved in last weeks US election. There’s a lot more old people already voting that are at varying levels of being politically informed. To stereotype, young people don’t tend to vote but can be politically active.

              18-29 was the age group most affected by our multi crisis world, they went anti establishment. Give them a future to live for and they will vote for you.
