If this is true, then this is a problem because young people (especially nowadays) are much more liberal than they are as they get into their 30s and 40s.

One of the reasons why they have so little impact on voting trends is because they're young, stupid, and lazy. Or busy with other interests than politics.

When I was in undergrad, I was the only one in my apartment of 4 that voted. My 3 roommates never registered to vote in Auburn and stupidly put their parents address as their address. Their voting precinct was back in Birmingham.

When I was teaching a college course back in 2016, I had a number of students come to class surprised that they had to register to vote at all and had missed the deadline to register.

BUT there is such a push right now for early registration and voting by mail/absentee ballot/early that I imagine many young people have figured out how to vote without hiccups.
