Students at a Wisconsin watch party for the recent Democratic presidential debate were left feeling uninspired by the candidates’ performances. The event, hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, drew a crowd of eager young voters hoping to be inspired by the candidates vying for their support.
Many of the students expressed disappointment with the lack of substance in the candidates’ answers and the constant interruptions and bickering between them. Despite the candidates discussing important issues such as climate change, healthcare, and gun control, students felt that there was not enough depth in the discussions and that the candidates were more focused on attacking each other than presenting their own policies and ideas.
Some students were also discouraged by the lack of representation of young people in the debate. They felt that the candidates were not addressing the issues that are most important to them, such as student debt and affordable housing.
Overall, the atmosphere at the watch party was one of frustration and disillusionment. Many students left feeling as though their voices were not being heard and that the candidates were not offering real solutions to the problems facing the country.
As the Democratic primary continues and more debates are scheduled, it will be crucial for the candidates to better connect with young voters and address the issues that matter most to them. Otherwise, they risk losing the support of a crucial voting bloc in the upcoming election.
