Parkland’s Hogg: Polls Showing Millennials Are More Conservative on Guns Are Biased

‘It’s important for the students out there that want to know what to do next’

EXCERPT:

HOGG: "One thing I think is important to remember about those polls is conservative students and conservative people in the millennial generation are typically a lot more politically active, so the polls may be biased in that way because many students that have more liberal views may just not partake in them. So there may be a skew in the polls that way. Also I think it’s important for the students out there that want to know what to do next, it’s get out and vote. Research who your politicians are even, know what they do, know who they’re supported by legislatively and know who is supporting them financially for their campaigns. Because ever since Citizens United we’ve seen a massive growth in the amount of campaign contributions and corruption in politics as a result. And that has to change. Sadly, our parents haven’t done so, so my generation does."
