Young voters, finally, are highlighted in a GOP Debate

The issues important to young voters were finally discussed in the GOP debate when moderators selected questions on criminal justice reform and immigration from popular YouTube personalities.

Young veteran Mark Watson asked the presidential candidates whether police should be required to wear body cameras.

“We currently have better cameras in our pockets than in our precincts,” he said. “Why aren’t we using technology to better protect our communities?”

Sen. Rand Paul took the question, and instead of blaming technology, he blamed politicians and the War on Drugs for recent instances of police violence, while making a broader call for criminal justice reform.
