I’m not so worried about this. The only reason why older voters are considered so important is that they are considered more reliable. There are actually a lot more eligible voters in the younger demographics now. It’s just a matter of turning them out. In the 2018 midterms we did see higher youth turnout, and I feel confident Bernie can actually deliver even higher turnout the Obama did in 2008 because his organization is stronger. When the DNC is forced to put all of its resources behind him as nominee, he’ll effectively have two gigantic machines behind him
