But written in lettering that mimics Biden’s actual campaign logo is a phrase that has become a movement: Settle for Biden.
In a message to skeptical primary voters in August 2019 in New Hampshire, the former second lady said “maybe you have to swallow a little bit” to vote for her husband, but he is the candidate who can beat President Donald Trump. The comments resulted in some headlines stating Jill Biden was asking voters to"settle" for her husband.
Youth turnout jumps from 2014 to 2018 midtermsOver the past several months, young and progressive voters have used social media to campaign amid the coronavirus pandemic and convince skeptical voters to support Biden. And Settle for Biden has gone from just an organization to a movement for many members of those key voting blocs.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 36% of citizens ages 18 to 29 reported voting during the 2018 midterms, which is up from the 20% in 2014.

Aidan Kohn-Murphy, a 16-year-old from the Washington, D.C. area, started the organization after the first presidential debate on Sept. 29, which he described as “insane” due to Trump’s performance. Kohn-Murphy said he and his friends “were kind of feeling powerless” and wondered if they could use their “platforms for something good.”

Kamala Harris’ niece, and Claudia Conway, daughter of Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway. The group has more than 778,000 followers on TikTok. But many of the creators that are a part of the group have their own viral followings. For example, Green and Claudia Conway each have more than 1 million followers on their own accounts.
