Political groups and candidates are targeting young voters, who are motivated by specific policies like abortion.

Summary

Gen Z posted greater voter turnout in 2022 compared to previous generations in midterm elections. As the 2024 election approaches, campaigning continues to be directed at this generation — including outreach led by Gen Z voters themselves.

Gen Z voters are more motivated to participate in elections due to specific policy issues, particularly reproductive rights. Political groups and candidates are implementing new strategies to engage this generation, including peer-to-peer organizing and authentic messaging.

Vice President Harris has been praised for her relatable social media presence, while former President Trump has appeared on popular male-dominated podcasts.

      A few more days and we won’t have to deal with these lazy responses. Once Harris wins we can go back to focusing on the actual problems of capitalism and democracy.
