Half of registered voters under 30 years old plan to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris and one-third are lining up with former President Donald Trump — relatively unchanged from a previous survey in August, according to the new NBC News Stay Tuned Gen Z Poll, powered by SurveyMonkey.
And among young voters who say they will vote in the presidential election in November, Harris leads 56%-36%, a 20-point advantage. With some young voters leaning toward other candidates on the ballot besides Harris and Trump, that’s just shy of the 24-point margin President Joe Biden enjoyed among voters under 30 in 2020 (60%-36%), according to the NBC News exit poll.
