In the latest iteration of voter suppression, members of the Republican Party are trying to prevent college students from voting by getting rid of polling places on campuses and disallowing college IDs as valid forms of identification.

Andy speaks with NextGen America director Cristina Tzintzún Ramirez and Harvard’s director of polling John Della Volpe about how young voters are reshaping democracy and whether the Republicans’ strategy to suppress them will succeed.
