American gen Z voters share how they feel about Kamala Harris’s presidential bid, why they like or dislike her as a candidate and whether they think she could beat Donald Trump, as the vice-president races towards winning the Democratic nomination for November’s election.

‘I think she’s just what we need’

“I think [Kamala Harris] is the only one that makes sense. She will get the votes Biden couldn’t. She could get the Black, Asian, Latino, women’s, LGBTQ+ and youth votes. She stands more for progress and equality than an old white dude and if she wins it will be historic. The Democrats need a bold move and I think she’s just what we need.

“I hope the Democrats realize what an opportunity this is for them.” Will, 22, construction worker from Portland, Oregon

the big winning factor for kamalas voter base is literally just her age. She's nearly 20 years younger than trump. 20 years

literally nothing else matters. Especially among gen z, it just helps that he has such a comprehensive background in government and around other politicians as well.

Gen Z is about to have their Obama moment like how millenials did, I'm taking bets for it now. Everything has happened before, time is a flat circle, I'm willing to bet.

It's Kamala all the way!!!! 😁😂😁 Let's just vote now to lock it in! I can do without the 12 weeks of YouTube ads.

Also don't pay YouTube for ads, they are now evil.
