As the election season approaches, many voters are excited to share there thoughts on the new presidential candidates. Both candidates are escalating their attempts at sharing their own political beliefs.
The most important issue younger voters are looking for this year is the economy. After covid, the economy never fully recovered leaving inflation on everything including housing. This gives new voters doubts about how they will ever afford owning their own land, houses and more.
“The inflation and housing crisis is important to me because a lot of Americans can’t even buy houses before they make like what 130,000 a year,” said Junior Keegan Mathre.
Voting is the most important thing U.S. citizens can do. No matter the voters’ beliefs your vote matters. The voice of everyone in our country is always important. One vote can change everything. Having the right to vote is something that can be taken for granted when deciding if people should vote or not.
“Knowing that I have the privilege to vote I will never not vote no matter what people died for my right to vote,” Kris McCarthy said.
Younger votes always need to be checking their sources before making a decision. Sixty-two percent of young voters say that what they learn is from social media. In this, there is no cross checking with other platforms or with other people.
“You have to read all of them to form your own opinion like away from your friends and your parents” junior Keegan Mathre said.
This election has been very polarizing, with both candidates making many promises. Everything said is not always done. The United States government uses a system of checks and balances to keep each branch of government balanced and in check. This system conflicts with many ideas promised by presidential candidates.
“I think they need to reflect on their past performances because I think they both kind of have a delay on their promises,” senior Hannah Drexel said. “Promises in what they actually did so they need to like reconnect that and make promises for how they’re going to do things better in the future”.
As the election approaches, new and returning voters alike are asked to make a decision. With the privilege that comes with voting, it is important to stay informed making sure every voice is heard. In this quickly changing political climate, every vote really does matter.
