One critical factor is young voters. They came out in near-record numbers, broke overwhelmingly for Democrats and helped tip races across the country.
For Republicans, this turnout should be a wakeup call and push the GOP to take seriously any opportunity to earn the vote of my fellow young voters. In my view, and as polling makes clear, leading on clean energy and climate is a prime opportunity. It’s one of the chief concerns of the rising generation, including among young Republicans, too. By offering market-based solutions that meet the challenge here and push other countries to do their part, like the Baker-Shultz plan, the party could show real credibility on this critical topic and help turn the tide of the youth vote across America.
I’m thankful we have representatives in Utah — such as Rep. John Curtis — who are ahead on this trend and are already stepping it up on sensible energy and environmental solutions. I hope they’ll keep it going.
