Republicans are claiming more of the youth demographic MEGAN TAMBIO For the Daily Titan

The Spring Harvard Youth Politics Poll has just been released, and the findings aren’t too favorable for the federal government—particularly the Democratic party. Only 32 percent of the polled students said they trust President Barack Obama to do the right thing. A measly 12 percent trust Congress. Another recent survey conducted by USA Today and the Pew Research Center showed that, for the first time in 10 years, more people are leaning toward the Republican candidates running for congress in their district.

The musical talent of one of Cal State Fullerton’s own will fill the halls of one of New York’s most prized musical land- marks in the performance of a lifetime.
