HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Oct. 28,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The votes are in and kids have
chosen Kamala Harris as the winner
of Nickelodeon's Kids Pick the President "Kids' Vote" poll.
Kamala Harris received 52% of the
vote, followed by Donald Trump with
48%. More than 32,000 individuals cast their virtual ballot in the
"Kids' Vote" poll from Oct. 3-23. The
Kids Pick the President "Kids' Vote" is an informal
non-scientific poll, meant for entertainment purposes only.
Nickelodeon's "Kids Vote" results will be formally announced in
tonight's half-hour special, hosted by Nate
Burleson (CBS Mornings, NFL Slimetime, The

Told from a uniquely kid-led POV, the half-hour Kids Pick the
President special will platform the issues young people care
about most in the 2024 U.S. presidential election. Kids from all
sides of the political spectrum will share their personal stories
and opinions on topics, including the economy, future of AI and
technology, and health.
