This Presidential Candidate Would Win If Only Kids Voted In Election
So far, we talked about what would happen if only men or only women voted in the upcoming election, but what about the the single most important demographic that can't vote? That's right: If kids could vote, who would they vote for?
According to the Scholastic Student Vote, Hillary Clinton receive a whopping 52% of all votes. Donald Trump only received 35% of all votes, followed by Gary Johnson, Bernie Sanders and Jill Stein.
The voting was done among 153,000 students ranging from kindergarten to 12th grade. Kids had the option of either voting online or mailing in their ballot.
Don't dismiss this election as a cutesy PR stunt just yet, though: In the 70 years Scholastic has done a Student Vote, they've only been incorrect twice: Once in 1948 (Truman vs. Dewey) and 1960 (Richard Nixon vs. John F. Kennedy.)
Rest easy, HRC: You have the kids' vote, and we all know how hard that is to get.
