We are two weeks away from the midterm elections.
The results will determine who controls congress, which states get new governors and where abortion might be enshrined or rejected in state constitutions.
But what goes down depends on who shows up. Young voters had record turnout in 2020 and 2018. Will they do it again in 2022? What’s driving them to the polls this year?
What should first-time voters expect?

..."It is unclear how many of those same young voters or those who have come of age since the 2020 election will cast a ballot this year or how many of the larger voting population in Orange County will go blue or red in the contested races statewide.
Also speaking with Ocasio-Cortez on Sunday were Tommy Vietor, a co-founder of Crooked Media and host of “Pod Save America,” Costa Mesa Councilwoman Arlis Reynolds, Kathleen Treseder, a Howard A. Schneiderman endowed chair and professor of biology at UC Irvine, and Iris “Nini” Wu of the Orange County Young Democrats."
