Why Kamala LOST Young Voters w/Jordan Chariton (Interview) [47:45 | NOV 14 24 | 6Sabby Sabs]

Key Points:

1. Declining Youth Engagement: The 7% drop in young voter turnout reflects a growing disconnection between the Democratic Party and younger voters, who feel their needs are ignored. This trend could have long-term implications for future elections as younger generations seek alternatives.
2. Contrast with Sanders: Bernie Sanders’s successful outreach to young voters in 2016 and 2020 highlights the importance of strong, clear economic policies that resonate with this demographic. Harris’s failure to adopt similar strategies demonstrates a missed opportunity.
3. Economic Discontent: Many voters, especially young ones, are frustrated with the current economic climate, which they associate with Democratic leadership. This sentiment poses a challenge for the party if they do not address these core concerns moving forward.
4. Lack of Specificity: Vague campaign messages, such as lacking a defined minimum wage increase, failed to inspire confidence in Harris’s ability to deliver real change, further alienating potential supporters who crave bold, actionable policies.
5. Third-Party Consideration: The rising interest in third-party candidates amongst young voters signals a significant shift in political allegiance and dissatisfaction with the traditional two-party system, emphasizing the need for Democratic candidates to adapt their strategies.
6. Media Influence: The corporate media’s focus on superficial aspects of campaigns, such as celebrity endorsements, detracted from the real issues voters care about, misleading the public regarding candidate support and engagement.
7. Corporate Influence: The Democratic Party’s reliance on corporate funding creates a conflict of interest that alienates the very voters it seeks to attract. Without addressing this issue, the party risks further losing credibility and support among the electorate.
