The same poll taken last fall showed Kennedy leading Trump and Biden with voters aged 18-34, getting 39% to their 27% and 32% respectively. However, that poll did not include West and Stein.
One former Bernie Sanders pollster, Ben Tulchin, recently sounded the alarm over Kennedy pulling so much young support from Biden. Last week, he told The New York Times he was worried about Biden's chances of winning re-election because of Kennedy's appeal to the demographic, as well as Latino voters.
"Young voters and Latinos respond really well to a hard-edge economic populist message — and that is not Biden’s message," Tulchin said. "They’re dissatisfied about the political and economic status quo. And I see in that mind-set the potential opening to support a third-party candidate," he said.

To prevent that from happening, the Democratic National Committee launched an effort to silence the threat to Biden's re-election from third-party candidates, namely Kennedy, in the form of a team that is expected to actively combat them with legal challenges and opposition research.
Likewise, Trump recently railed against Kennedy as a "wasted protest vote" in a post on Truth Social, and his campaign has launched a website targeting the latter as "radical f-----g Kennedy," describing him as a "friend of left-wing extremists."

Additionally, Biden appeared alongside six members of Kennedy's family as they endorsed him over their own, a clear snub in conjunction with the DNC's efforts.
Both sides have also accused Kennedy of being a "plant" in order to help boost the other side, something he vehemently denies.
