Description

The 2024 Presidential Election is under way and since President Joe Biden left the race and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to be the Democratic party’s nominee, young voters have responded to her candidacy with record breaking voter registrations, campaign volunteer signups and donations. Gen Z and young millennials make up one of the largest voting blocs this election cycle and could impact the results if they vote — and if they don’t. So what issues are young voters concerned about and how will they vote? In the first installment of SoCal Voices young voter series, 31-year-old civil rights attorney Sarah Carthen Watson talks about the issues she’s most concerned about in this election, how she plans to vote, and the fundamental changes she believes are needed to make America a more just, equitable and livable society for us all.
