Should I apply now for ypp ?

I got
7,130 subs
6,046 hours watch time.

My two videos got viral in last 8 days and they propelled me from 46 subs, 1.3k minutes watchtime.
My content is political videos (others content but they don't mind)

yes, apply now

Isn’t it true that you can apply at any time, even if you do not meet the requirements.

once you hit all the boxes, they will review your channel.

You mention ‘other’s content’, hope this is not an issue with copyrights.

good luck.
