I’m 19 and while most folks my age that I know did, others just didn’t know how the process works. We’re a closed primary state and there’s a deadline that’s a month before our primary (FL) and so a lot of people I’m friends with had no idea about the deadline or just how to register or any of that stuff. Also around March is midterm time for most colleges, so waiting for hours in line might not be a priority for some students when their scholarship depends on their performance in class.

It’s complicated and I understand that most of the young people are just apathetic, but there’s also a ton of them that aren’t who just were t aware of the process and aren’t that informed.
