A young Democrat college student has confessed that she feels deep regret for voting for President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
Speaking to CNN’s Jeff Zeleny, Anna Soryal admitted that she feels “embarrassed” that she voted for Biden.
The news comes as Biden continues to lose votes in critical swing states from younger Democrats.
Many young liberals are angry at the Biden administration’s support for Israel, Zeleny said in a new report.
Zeleny spoke to left-wing college students in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin who showed up to protest the president during his recent campaign stops.
Some students held “Genocide Joe” signs.
They told Zeleny they could not vote for Biden unless there was a drastic change in U.S. foreign policy.
“I do not believe so,” University of Pittsburgh PhD student Karim Safieddine said to CNN about voting for Biden in November.
“And I do believe that many people will not be voting for Joe Biden.”
Anna Soryal, a graduate student at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, said she was surprised at how the Biden campaign is “disregarding public opinion” on the Israel war.
Soryal confessed she deeply regrets voting for Biden in 2020 and feels ashamed about her choice.
“That was the first time I could vote in a presidential election,” she told CNN.
“Frankly, I look back — I’m embarrassed.”
Pro-Hamas protests have followed Biden on the campaign trail.
the issue has led liberal outlets like MSNBC to warn that he’s at risk of losing progressive voters in key battleground states over the issue.
University of Wisconsin student Dahlia Saba, who helped organize a protest primary vote in Wisconsin in early April, told CNN that Biden was avoiding campaign stops at college campuses because he knew he’d be met with backlash from students.
“His policies have killed tens of thousands,” she claimed.
The college student added that voters like her would not be “coerced” by the Democratic Party to stop their protests against Biden just because “another candidate is worse.”

The Biden campaign responded to these criticisms in a statement.
A Team Biden spokesperson said:
“The President believes making your voice heard and participating in our democracy is fundamental to who we are as Americans.
“He shares the goal for an end to the violence and a just, lasting peace in the Middle East.
“He’s working tirelessly to that end.”
In March, a Fox News poll found President Donald Trump holds a narrow two-point lead over Biden among Pennsylvania registered voters.
This latest report follows a similar one out of Georgia last week when young black voters expressed regrets to CNN over voting for Biden in the last election because of the war in Gaza.
“We’re tired of hearing him say these things, these empty promises,” a female voter remarked in that report.
“We have no trust in Joe Biden.”
