The Biden Dilemma: Losing Young Voters and the Urgency for Outreach in 2024

Young voters who supported Joe Biden in the 2020 election are expressing their dissatisfaction with the president and questioning whether they will support him in the 2024 election. Many cite policy disappointments, such as insufficient action on climate change and failure to fully address student loan debt and codify Roe v. Wade. Biden's handling of the Israel-Hamas war is also a major factor in their disillusionment. The decline in support among young voters is a cause for concern for the Democratic Party, which will need to invest in engaging and earning the support of this crucial demographic in future campaigns.
