American gen Z voters share how they feel about Kamala Harrisās presidential bid, why they like or dislike her as a candidate and whether they think she could beat Donald Trump, as the vice-presidentĀ races towards winning the Democratic nominationĀ for Novemberās election.
āI think sheās just what we needā
āI think [Kamala Harris] is the only one that makes sense. She will get the votes Biden couldnāt. She could get the Black, Asian, Latino, womenās, LGBTQ+ and youth votes. She stands more for progress and equality than an old white dude and if she wins it will be historic. The Democrats need a bold move and I think sheās just what we need.
āI hope theĀ DemocratsĀ realize what an opportunity this is for them.āĀ Will, 22,Ā construction worker from Portland, Oregon

It also shouldnāt be a duopoly game but here we are.
The shorter election cycle is appreciated. This should be a thing. Say, on July 5th of an election year, then it begins.
Keep the primary results a secret until a couple of weeks before the convention. Itād also help the states with late primaries to not feel irrelevant.
āIf wishes were horses then beggars would ride.ā
Weāre celebrating the apparent increase in voters that arenāt even following the duopoly policies enough to recognize literal fascism vs imperfect but generally good faith politicians.
If theyāre not informed enough to see the face eating leopard party for what it is, adding more parties to the mix wonāt improve anything.
I agree that ranked choice voting is desirable. But it wonāt help with these kinds of voters.
I donāt get that. I still have relatives trying to tell me trickle down economics works, that it is the way. Really? You think successful trickle down economics is why we all feel squeezed right now? You think thatās why Amazon workers go through hell while Bezos flies around in a penis rocket?
Reality isnāt tracking as reality. Iām not sure how one gets to that point where a confident person in a suit announces that x is the truth and so you just start repeating x is the truth and actually believing it.
