The real winner of Tuesday’s presidential debate? Young voters.

Unlike the first presidential debate and the vice-presidential face-off, issues that impact young Americans played a much more prominent role last night.

The town hall debate, moderated by CNN’s Candy Crowley at Hofstra University in Long Island, New York, gave Americans the chance to ask the candidates about their policies directly, including three young Americans who asked about immigration, equal pay for women, and job creation.
