Millions of millennials would choose death over voting for Clinton or Trump

Nearly a quarter of Americans ages 18 to 35 would rather see a giant meteor strike the Earth than see either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump in the White House, according to the new UMass Lowell/Odyssey millennial poll released today.

Yes, you read that right. The poll asked millennials to choose their preference between Clinton, Trump, a random lottery to choose the president from all U.S. citizens, Barack Obama appointing himself to a life term as president, or a giant meteor striking Earth and extinguishing all human life.

And…. you guessed it: 23 percent of millennials supported the idea of a giant meteor strike happening before the Nov. 8 election. Over a Clinton or Trump presidency, 39 percent of those surveyed said they preferred Obama serve a life term, and 26 percent preferred a random lottery to choose the next president.

The national poll, conducted last week, was designed to get a closer look into millennials minds and find out about their attitude, opinions, and perception toward the 2016 election, serious or not.

Approximately 23 million millennials voted in 2012 — meaning more than 5 million voters would chose death, according to this poll.
