Recent data from Harvard Kennedy School reveals that House and Senate Democrats have lost considerable favor among Americans under 30 years old, with only 23% approving of their lawmakers. This marks a significant drop from 48% in fall 2020. Comparatively, Trump maintains stable approval ratings around 30% among the youth demographic. The survey also indicates that young voters favor Trump's presidency over Biden's, which poses challenges for Democrats, particularly following Kamala Harris's underperformance with young voters in previous elections.
