A pool on excitement shows I've lied about what, exactly? Have you any statistics to report on early votes received by age cohort? Which was the data I specifically talked about? No? Then go look for them because they've been published already. And then tell us whether I've said any lie or not.
You're criticizing a lack of data, when your post provides none!? Could you at least provide a reference for your claims.
Maybe things will repeat themselves. But with far less undecided voters then 2016, Trump doing worse both nationally and state wide (behind in Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennysylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin) then 2016, and with Biden seeming to have Trumps ability to shake off any potential scandal, its not completely unreasonable (https://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2020-53657174).wishful thinking was prevalent among Clinton's fans in 2016. Yes I do see the past repeating itself in several things, that is one.
In terms of voting engagement, early voting is easily out pacing 2016 (https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/elections/early-voting-numbers-so-far/).
In terms of student engagement in voting " 71 percent of college students said they are “absolutely certain” that they will vote in November’s election""
"Democratic students (81 percent) were slightly more likely than Republicans (74 percent) to be certain they will vote, and women students were more likely than men to be certain they will vote (75 and 65 percent, respectively)"
