POLL: Student Loan Relief Will Give Democrats A Huge Boost

A new poll conducted by Data for Progress and Rise suggests that Biden and the Democrats would receive a huge boost during the midterm elections if the administration gets serious about student loan debt relief. A little over 2,000 likely voters from battleground states reported that any debt relief or even a continued payment pause would incentive them to vote. John Iadarola, Francesca Fiorentini, and Adrienne Lawrence discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live

"A new poll suggests student-loan relief might help voter turnout in November's midterm elections.

Data for Progress, in collaboration with Rise — a higher education advocacy group — conducted a survey obtained exclusively by Insider of 2,066 likely voters in the battleground states Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, all of which flipped from former President Donald Trump to President Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election.

Respondents were polled on how likely they would be to vote in the November general election should Biden implement a range of policy measures related to student debt, and it found that 45% of them would be somewhat or much more likely to vote if Biden cancels $10,000 in student debt for every federal borrower, which he pledged to do on the campaign trail.

Additionally, 46% of respondents also said they would be likelier to go to the polls if Biden were to cancel $50,000 in student debt for every federal borrower — an amount many progressives lawmakers have been pushing for. Over one-third of respondents said another motivating factor to vote would come from a further extension of the pause on student-loan payments through the end of the year.”
