At college campuses, state鈥檚 youngest voters remain a great unknown

College student Adam Schaefer has seen the posts all over social media — friends and classmates writing that they’re not voting for either GOP nominee Donald Trump or Democrat Hillary Clinton. They’re casting a ballot for Libertarian Gary Johnson or Green Party candidate Jill Stein.

Schaefer, for one, doesn’t believe it.

“That’s a Facebook phenomenon,” says the Western Washington University student, dismissively. “Everyone I talk to — they say, ‘I’m voting for Hillary.’ ”

But sometimes they also tell him, “I’m not enthusiastic about it.”
