“#How first-time voters felt about final presidential debate<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n A trio of first-time presidential voters said the final debate before Election Day was largely underwhelming \u2014 and the candidates didn\u2019t pull any of them across party lines.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like every other election I\u2019ve watched throughout my life, with my parents and such, it was a lot more respectful,\u201d Maggie Zawatski, 22, of Brooklyn, said of the 90-minute showdown between President Trump and Joe Biden at Belmont University in Nashville.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just drama, and it\u2019s petty \u2014 it\u2019s like how I fought with my friends in high school.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were both just going back and forth \u2014 a lot of disagreement,\u201d\u00a0 said Zawatski, adding that the debate did not sway her from her intention to vote for Biden.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m actually going to say Biden won, though I didn\u2019t think it was his best performance,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like on some issues he wasn\u2019t good at getting his point across. People looking for that confident leader, that could have been a turn-off for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

For undecided registered Republican Brian Suga, 23, the debate left him leaning more solidly toward Trump.<\/p>\n

\u201cBiden seemed to dance around the questions more than Trump did,\u201d he said. \u201cIt never really felt like Biden gave me something I could work with,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Trump, meanwhile, \u201cSeemed to be able to really control himself. It shows that he can have self-control\u201d when he chooses to, he said.<\/p>\n

But Suga, too, noted that the two candidates hardly seem capable of agreeing on which color tie the other was wearing.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were both just going back and forth \u2014 with a lot of disagreement,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

With Trump insisting the pandemic \u201cis going away,\u201d and Biden bemoaning the 200,000 more Americans he said are on the brink of death, it seemed as if the two candidates were living in opposite realities, Suga said.<\/p>\n

The candidates also offered polarized views on climate change \u2014 with Trump touting the cleanliness of America\u2019s air and water, and Biden urging a steady retreat from all fossil fuels.<\/p>\n

When Hunter Biden\u2019s emails came up \u2014 with Trump urging the vice president to come clean \u2014 Biden brushed the accusations off as if they were fictions not worth even discussing, said Suga.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want Biden to talk about these allegations,\u201d he said. \u201cI really would have liked to see at least an answer, a response, that was more than just \u2018That\u2019s not true.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Still, despite the divide between the candidates \u2014 and the rancor \u2014 this debate was far more civilized, noted all three first-timers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was much less shouting this time,\u201d than with the first presidential match-up, noted Suga, crediting the moderator,\u00a0NBC News<\/a> White House correspondent Kristen Welker, and a new rule that gave each candidate two minutes to speak on each of the night\u2019s six topics \u2014 with their opponent muted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis debate was night and day compared to the last debate \u2014 much calmer,\u201d agreed Trump supporter Efraim Abrams, 19, of West Hempstead.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the American public really won,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd I think Trump was really able to prove that he should be the next president of the United States,\u201d\u00a0 added Abrams, who said the debate did not change his mind \u2014 and that his first presidential vote will be for four more years.<\/p>\n

\u201cBiden lost some major states tonight in my opinion,\u201d he said, noting the former veep\u2019s assertion during the debate that as president, he will move the country away from fossil fuels.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike Texas, Pennsylvania, Oklahoma, Ohio. These are major states that are heavily dependent on oil. You can\u2019t win in the electoral college is you keep telling people you\u2019re going to get rid of the oil industry.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
