Let's see the polls regarding the right/left/independent numbers because the millenials and upcoming generations are favoring a democratic government, but they don't seem to be motivated to vote. How to motivate people to vote? Either make them angry or very concerned about something that affects them.
So it looks like independents have the numbers, so does this explain CNN and Fox turnaround? Viewer numbers?

I am nonpartisan, and I am a Boomer. I gave up on the two party system a long time ago.
The young ones are smart enough to believe the lying, corrupt leaders when they show them what they are, and to ignore what they claim to be.
Maybe the next generations will expose just how much of farce the whole system is.
I am also in the middle with my needle moving left or right depending on the issue. I pick an issue important to me and vote accordingly. I am also a boomer (tail end) and have seen a lot of politics in my time.
Young or old, if you want to believe to fit your narrative, you will believe.
With AI threatening our information media feed, I hope the younger generations get savvy really fast to figure out what is a lie and what isn't. They and we have to be smarter than the disinformation out there.
