No, this makes the assumption that all millennials would only vote for a millennial. That doesn't make sense. Millennials typically don't have as much political experience. Why would we vote for them?
Millennials don't need to be voted into office for their voice to be heard. That's the point of a republic, to elect representatives that reflect your _viewpoints_, not age.
- Retric 9y ago> voting on legislation Requires someone to be in Congress, not be a normal person on election day. Regular voters have very limited direct impact on specific pieces of legislation.
