CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 11 (UPI) -- Young Democrats are gravitating toward Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., a self-described democratic socialist, a new poll indicates.
Sanders' appeal among millennial progressives -- between the ages of 18 and 29 -- can be attributed to his democratic socialism, according to a new poll by the Harvard University Institute of Politics. Twenty-four percent said they were more likely to vote for him because of it, while 9 percent found it to be a deterrent. Sixty-six percent said it made no difference to them.
