From KQED.

From KQED. From KQED Public Radio in San Francisco, I'm Nina Kim. Coming up on forum, we'll hear from middle schoolers to college seniors about what's motivating them to get politically involved. A recent Harvard youth poll found that more 18 to 29-year-olds say they will definitely vote in this year's election compared to 2016.

We'll learn what issues are motivating these young voters and what they thought of last night's debate.

And for those still too young to vote, we'll learn how they're trying to influence the 2020 election.

That's all next on Forum. Join us. This is Forum. I'm Mina Kim. Young voters have a track record of low turnout in elections,

but a recent Harvard Youth poll finds that 63% of 18 to 29-year-olds say they will definitely

be voting this year, up from 47% in 2016.

In this hour, we'll hear from first-time voters and college students about what's driving

their political engagement and from middle and high school students later in the hour,

who are too young to vote but wanting to influence this year's election.

Joining me now is Brandon Jeter, a student studying political science and history at UC Davis.

He's also a columnist for the California Aggie.

Thanks so much for joining us, Brandon Jetter.
