As the presidential race ramps up in Georgia, one vital voting demographic is mobilizing and hoping to impact the race: young people.
A member of the Young Republicans fills out a postcard asking for support for GOP candidates in Georgia.
“We're excited for a change,” Harn says when asked about Trump’s 2024 run. “We want the life that we had four years ago when President Trump was president. And his policies — his conservative policies — we need those back, and we want those to be able to achieve our version of the American dream again.”
“Since the Obama years, the youth vote really has sided with the Democratic presidential candidate more often than not,” Swint told NPR.
For organizers like Jennings, the goal is to hold onto the wave of enthusiasm Harris’ candidacy generated and use it to mobilize all Georgians. At this event, they sent about 64,000 texts, all aimed at a very specific group: men of color, 27 to 50 years old. “It still remains to be seen whether the Harris campaign can continue that momentum all the way into November and make sure that Gen Z and younger voters are mobilized and active participants in our democracy,” he told NPR.Outside of campaigning for either party, a swathe of nonpartisan groups operate in Georgia and are working to simply make sure young people are politically engaged.
