HEMPSTEAD, N.Y.--Likely youthful voters--18-to-29-year-olds--prefer President Barack Obama over Mitt Romney by 19 points--with 48 percent of young adults saying they will "definitely" cast a ballot, according to a poll released Wednesday by Harvard's Institute of Politics at the Kennedy School of Government.
"As enthusiasm for voting continues to slip among America's 18- to 29- year olds, the IOP's latest poll shows a clear sentiment by young adults that Washington is broken," said Harvard Institute of Politics Director Trey Grayson.
"Despite telling us that they are far less likely to vote this year, Millennials still yearn to make this country great - and it is our hope that as we approach Election Day both presidential campaigns work to connect with young adults in more meaningful ways and better engage on the issues that will shape their future and ours," said Harvard Institute of Politics Polling Director John Della Volpe.
