Vox pops

I asked a number of students from the University of Essex, in a Vox pop style interview for their thoughts on the candidates of the US election.

Iuan Jenkins 18;”I think they both definitely have their flaws and one probably has a worse reputation than the other. Either way its gonna cause a lot of discussions and either way it ends badly and a lot of people are gonna disagree and be angry with either candidate.

Rumyana Krasteva 18; “Personally I believe that with a two party system all you can really do is vote for the lesser of two evils. So to not be apathetic if I could vote id have to choose the slightly better one. Which in my opinion is Biden because I think trump is a terrible, terrible person but neither of them is really good.”

Georgia Stroud 20; “I don’t know massively loads about it but from what I do know about the two candidates id definitely say it would be better for the world and the country with Biden but either way the backlash is gonna be negative from the other side.”

Lily Morris 18; “I think the best option is to definitely settle for Biden because I think its just way too dangerous to allow Trump to remain in power and carry on how he is.”

Nana Osei 18; ” I think widens definitely better. like, the whole country and even the rest of the world has massively divided and racists and far right extremists have had voice and its spreading and is enabled which is obviously wrong. But like he’s not as supportive on Brexit so I’m some ways he might be worse for us.”
