Poll: Majority of Millennials Can't Name a Senator From Their Home State

More than three-fourths of millennials cannot name one of their home state’s senators, according to a new poll. In Fusion’s “Massive Millennial Poll” released on Tuesday, 77 percent of Americans between 18 and 34 could not name one senator in his or her home state. Twenty-three percent answered the question correctly. Men were more likely than women to name their senator, with 25 percent of men and 20 percent of women answering the open-ended question correctly. Women were more likely to answer that they did not know rather than name the wrong senator . The number is even lower among younger millennials. Of those ages 18 to 24, only 18 percent knew the name of their senator. http://politi.co/1F5QRJA http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ
