BOSTON — By a nearly 2-to-1 margin, more young voters support than oppose the impeachment of President Donald Trump and his removal from office, according to a new national poll released Monday by the Institute of Politics at the Harvard Kennedy School.

The poll, which isolated voters ages 18 to 29, found 52 percent of all eligible youth voters and 58 percent of likely youth voters in the 2020 presidential general election believe Trump should be impeached and removed from office.

Twenty-seven percent of all youth voters and 28 percent of likely general election voters disagreed that he should be impeached and removed. The remaining said they did not know, didn’t care or declined to answer the question about impeachment.

The findings show a stronger preference for Trump’s impeachment among young people than older voters. It’s consistent with the leftward political shift of young voters, who supported Democratic candidates in record numbers during the 2018 midterm.
