TL;DR Summary

Republican lawmakers in several states have been trying to enact new obstacles to voting for college students, who tend to vote heavily Democratic. However, attempts to restrict out-of-state students from voting in their campus towns or to roll back preregistration for teenagers have failed in New Hampshire and Virginia. Idaho has banned student ID cards as a form of voter identification, but this is one of few successes for Republicans targeting young voters this year. Turnout in recent cycles has surged for young voters, who were energized by issues like abortion, climate change, and the Trump presidency.
