Contributing sentiments towards policy:

79% : So when Anpalagan, from the Yale College Republicans, sees polls showing Harris is capturing about half the youth vote, with Trump snaring about a third, he views that as good news.
55% : However, in both cases they were below the numbers Biden earned in 2020, when young people helped propel him to victory over Trump.
52% : Haynes said most people she knows support Harris, in part because they like her and in part because they're turned off by Trump.
49% : Weeks later, the Harvard Youth Poll of voters aged 18-29 found 46 percent support for Harris compared to 29 percent for Trump and 5 percent for other candidates.
47% : Ritter said candidates for the state legislature can appeal to young voters by talking about policies that have helped them, such as student debt relief, free community college, increases to the minimum wage, gun restrictions and protections for reproductive rights.
44% : An NBC News poll of Generation Z voters released in early September found that 50 percent supported Harris compared to only 34 percent for Trump and 6 percent for other candidates.
29% : On campus, he says, he perceives less stigma around supporting Trump than existed previously.
20% : In Connecticut, a recent CT Mirror poll found that while Harris led Trump 53-37 statewide, her margins were not significantly larger among young voters than among any other group.Is this cause for concern for Harris's campaign?
