Washington (CNN) Polling data and high levels of voter engagement indicate 2020 may bring out a wave of young voters, experts say. "I expect young voters to vote at all-time high rates," Meyers added, noting that young voters are "increasingly affected by political issues such as healthcare, LGBT rights, and immigration." According to Harvard's Fall 2020 survey, young voters are more concerned with the economy now than they were last spring. While in the spring, 6% of young voters listed the economy as their top issue, the state of the economy jumped to the top of young voters' concerns, with 23% listing it as their most important issue this fall. And NextGen America has registered more than 106,000 voters ahead of 2020 and is also helping young voters get their mail-in ballots.
