Today, in fact, Clinton looks like she might even outperform President Obama among young voters. And it’s a big reason she’s grabbed a lead in the polls.

A new poll of 18-to-29-year olds from the Harvard Institute of Politics shows Clinton leading Donald Trump by 28 points among young likely voters in a four-way matchup that includes Gary Johnson and Jill Stein, 49 percent to 21 percent. That 28-point margin is notably bigger than Obama’s 23-point margin in 2012, when he beat Mitt Romney 60-37 among this group…

What’s more, these data basically confirm what we’ve seen in other polling. Earlier this week, a GenForward survey conducted by the AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research showed Clinton leading among voters 18 to 30 by an even bigger 60-19 margin, with Johnson at 12 percent…

Just as a refresher, polls last month showed Clinton leading among young people by just 2 points, by 5 points, by 9 points and even trailing in the unorthodox and Trump-friendly USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times poll.
