American gen Z voters share how they feel about Kamala Harrisā€™s presidential bid, why they like or dislike her as a candidate and whether they think she could beat Donald Trump, as the vice-presidentĀ races towards winning the Democratic nominationĀ for Novemberā€™s election.

ā€˜I think sheā€™s just what we needā€™

ā€œI think [Kamala Harris] is the only one that makes sense. She will get the votes Biden couldnā€™t. She could get the Black, Asian, Latino, womenā€™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 sheā€™s just what we need.

ā€œI hope theĀ DemocratsĀ realize what an opportunity this is for them.ā€Ā Will, 22,Ā construction worker from Portland, Oregon

    Look what happens when the party listens. Maybe theyā€™ll keep listening if they see this works.

    Maybe Biden stepping down heralds the tipping point away from arrogant, ineffective, conservative gerontocracy within the Democratic party and toward a more progressive future.
