Voting them into office sure, but not nominating them.

Here's the actual problem: no one cares about supporting younger Democrats. They have no base. AOC only won because she has a base of actual supporters in the Bronx.

No, your edgy posts online don't matter. Who are you actually supporting? Name them. Not presidential candidates, who are you supporting at the state or local level?

The answer is crickets because young people have forgotten how to participate in democracy besides yelling slogans (right or left) and upvoting memes. Literally who do you support that is currently running for office?
