In the 2016 presidential cycle, for the first time, millennials will be as big a voting bloc as the baby boomers. Their sheer numbers make this group, most often defined by people in their twenties and early thirties, a crucial demographic for the presidential candidates. In 2008 and 2012, young people turned out heavily for Barack Obama. This year, Democrats are hoping to sustain that millennial enthusiasm while Republicans see a chance to make up on lost ground. Guest host Cecilia Kang and her panel of millennials discuss what it will take to get young people to the polls and what they want from their next president.
