A recent Reuters/Ipsos national poll shows the Democratic Party is losing support among millennials. The results of the poll, published last month, also show that millennials increasingly say the Republican Party is a better steward of the economy.

- Alex Hipolito, legislative assistant to Assemblymember Harry Bronson
- Carolyn Hoffman, political strategist
- Nick Nevinger, actor
- Jessica Fleming, human services professional
