Back in 2020, when Francisco Chavero was 12 years old, he canvassed with his mother for then presidential candidate Bernie Sanders in Nevada. Now at age 17, Francisco is looking ahead to the day he can vote, in two years time. Right now he says he supports some Democratic policies such as immigration reform, but also agrees with Republicans when it comes to issues related to the economy.

We will also highlight Francisco’s political evolution - how does he feel about candidate Kamala Harris after expressing criticisms about the age of the candidates before Harris entered the race?
