A great array of perspectives collected by our @collegebeatCA fellows and contributors who spoke with college voters from around the state! 👀🗳️
California colleges enroll 2 million undergrads in a given year spanning the forests of Arcata to the beaches of La Jolla. We spoke to college students about what issues are important to them and how college has informed their perspectives. @CalMatters calmatters.org/politics/elec…
Gen Z voters like Christian could have an outsized impact on elections in California. In six close house races, young voters could push Dem candidates to victory, if they show up. @jennarpetersonn and I chatted with young voters in August for @CalMatters calmatters.org/politics/elec…

❌ A bill vetoed by the governor would have increased the number of classes part-time community college faculty can teach at a single campus. Part-timers often have to commute between multiple campuses to make ends meet. cal.news/3BzfOoJ

“A lot of facilities don’t provide higher education, especially in maximum security prisons. I vividly remember a prisoner once telling me that he’s more liable to see a UFO than a college degree.”

Had to give @CalMatters Digital Democracy shoutout this morning when @kcraFitz asked if reporters are using AI to track CA bills.
Because of easy access to videos/time codes on bill debates, we could quickly do story about bill extending last call to 4am in LA Clippers VIP club

California’s journalism funding bill appears to be turning into more of an “AI innovation” funding bill. And more of the funding for journalism in this draft proposal would come from taxpayers than tech companies.
NEW for @politico: AI initiatives would get $40M annually in a draft California journalism bill agreement shared with POLITICO.
The draft would see California and Google form a partnership funding “democracy, journalism and AI innovation.” politico.com/news/2024/08/19…

Even for young people who aren’t as politically aware, the presidential race — particularly Harris, who officially secured the Democratic nomination this week — has been front and center in the social feeds of young voters through memes.
