the dreams, we will not have the future that s possible in 20 years. i am with the revolutionary, with the radical policy. you re right, he is popular among younger demographic, but at age 78, the oldest of all 2020 candidates, cnn polls show he has single digits support with those 65 and older, not much more than that with 45 and older. historically, older voters tend to be the most reliable voters. does his struggle to connect with them concern you? no. i think that a lot of times we vote out of fear, are told what to do by a couple different television stations. i think if young people get out locally, door knock, engage people that are the age of their parents and grand parents, we ll see those demographics change as well. it is time to set fire to the ground locally. the young people that shake my hand in airports and stop me in restaura
screen. but joining us from the campaign trail right now, nbc s ali vitali with elizabeth warren in new hampshire and marianna sotomay sotomayor, following joe biden s team. ladies, with a good morning to you both, ali, give me a sense of what s going on out there where you are. reporter: alex, you know things happen really fast out here on the campaign trail. five minutes ago there was a s battalion of elizabeth warren volunteers here kicking off a day of canvassing. they were in the coffee shop behind me picking up their pamphlets and walk booklets and this is how the ground game happens in places like new hampshire and iowa. when we talk about the campaigns with volunteers and staff on the ground, it s things like this that we re talking about, where the candidate came in this morning, gave a little bit of a speech to pep people up and sent them on their way. there were a few people going out with their scripts, going to go door knock, talk to voters and try to win people to eliza
support-from-voters? reporter: kendis, she rolled those out last week. on the ground you see in the polling a few other candidates are having pops in the polls. pete buttigieg among them. the real clear politics average still has elizabeth warren slightly ahead of the rest of the field but really there are a lot of candidates competing here just as across the map. we like to think about there being a clear front-runner. in this race, actually there s four. polling across the early states and nationally, pete buttigieg, joe biden, bernie sanders and elizabeth warren jockeying for position in all of those polls. the way that they improve their position is ground game. why we re here at this coffee shop because live a flv elizan was getting ready to door knock. the life blood of all the campaigns. you can t succeed in states like south carolina, new hampshire, and nevada if not organizing on
were doing bad things and that s why she s there because she was actually with those kids. basically i lived in the home. i didn t buy these drugs. any crimes that he committed while we lived together i was charged with. the minute she heard that door knock and they had an warrant for her arrest. i turned around and saw her hugging the kids. that was tough. she knew already. i m going to try to tell your story. try to make something good out of this. thank you, brother. i remember she always used to play with me and she used to comb my hair. the more i think about them, the more those memories are slipping away. it s been tough for the last nine years without her being here. there are thousands and thousands of people just like her serving the same ridiculously insane sentences. she did not go to the police so she was guilty. what we can t wrap our heads
it. it s unexcusable. we re doing everything we can to make sure we re reaching out. i have spoken to three, four of the women who were named who did not give permission to be named. this is a horrible mistake that i take complete and total personal responsibility for. it s something that s affected women s lives whose names were on that that didn t want to be on that. she w she was already behind. she didn t need to have this happen. it creates a narrative that her campaign was sloppy. i think in north dakota it s a small state. it s all going to depend on turn out. a fun fact, north dakota does not have voter registration. you can just go to the polls, show a id and register to vote. they are highly resourced right now. it s all about door knock and making sure her voters go out.
