Study asked 10 and 11-year-olds about Trump and Harris. These are the themes that came out

CNN's Anderson Cooper and his team contracted a psychologist from Arizona State University, along with a renowned political scientist from Stanford, to design a test to understand how 4th and 5th grade students see the 2024 election and the candidates. Editor's note: Shortly after the publication of this story, CNN was made aware that one of the authors of the study, Asheley Landrum, made small donations in support of the Harris campaign starting in July. CNN stands by the reporting in this story and the results of the study.
