Top Dem Pollster: ‘Very Real Risk’ Millennials Won’t Turn Out For Left In ’18
Bernie will need a new gimmick.
Quote:Stanley Greenberg, one of the top Democratic pollsters, warned that there is a “very real risk” that young voters will not turn out for Democrats in the 2018 midterm elections.
Greenberg’s remarks to the Atlantic’s Ron Brownstein this week underscores how the left is getting more worried that the so-called “blue wave” they once took for granted may not materialize in November.
As Brownstein noted, Greenberg’s remarks would not have worried Democrats six months ago when Democrats “held an advantage across the age spectrum when voters were asked which party they preferred in the midterm elections.” But recent polling has shown that the left’s advantage had significantly dissipated.[…]
Reuters interviewed “Terry Hood, 34, an African-American who works at a Dollar General store in Baton Rouge.”
Hood told the outlet that though he voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016, he was open to voting for a Republican for Congress in the midterms “because he believes the party is making it easier to find jobs and he applauds the recent Republican-led tax cut.”

they really don't understand why or how this is happening....it's like a bully getting his arse whipped by a nerd.....except for dems, it's happening every day as their msm puppets and washtub charlatans still believe they're relevant.....
it doesn't get better than a dipshite continually doubling down on being a dipshite....
they're beyond fuxxored going into Nov.......

There was never a blue wave to begin with. The day after the GOP won everything, the dems started running with that narrative, and the complicit TDS media ran with it as if they repeated it enough, it would become true. It was nothing but a confidence game the whole time, which has now collapsed. It's easy to pretend 2 years away from votes being cast, not so much when it's now 6 months away and closing.
I've said it once, I'll say it again -- everything the dems do and are involved in is a scam.

That’s incredible: a Breitbart article that is pro Republican. Who could’ve guessed? What’s next, a Huffington Post article that slams Donald Trump?

Young voters never turn out for mid terms. I don't expect this time to be any different

They also won't show up in 2020 if someone like Pocahontas is the nominee.

Well of course they won't. Most people 25 and under are unreliable, unhireable, and outright unqualified for even the simplest of tasks.

Hey DEMS, try to develop a winning strategy (if that's even possible) instead of attacking Americans and dumbing them down to rely on big government. It's not rocket science. Really, it's not...

There’s a former miss america running for Congress as a dem in my Alabama district. She’s like 28 and I follow her on social media. It’s kinda sad. She will tweet something asking for support and tag a bunch of NYC and LA celebrities in it to share, which they don’t. Her one fundraiser was held in NYC.
Not only are millennials not going to vote this election, they also have no clue how to campaign.

Which is exactly why I'd never put my eggs in the "under 25" basket when it comes to politics. Sure, they throw tantrums and post on "social media", but until they actually show up to vote, they'll be nothing more than a bloviating fringe group.
I know the lefties laugh about the GOP being the party of old white people, but what they can't seem to grasp is that those old white people show up and vote.
