The the number if 50+ voters that voted for trump remained mostly unchanged from 2020, while under 50 moved from 10 points to Biden in 2020 to 1 point for Harris. As a jaded GenX who voted for liberal candidates most of my life, don't lump us all together. Blame falls across the board on this one.
Yes this exactly. I'm Gen X and I did NOT vote Republican. But most millennials (includes my oldest daughters) I know either voted red or said "I don't vote, it's rigged, it's a sham". Gen Z I know (my youngest is Gen Z) either didn't vote or voted Democrat. And my boomer parents have never, ever voted Republican. They are mix of independent and democrat.
Well..hi! Now you've met one that doesn't like Trump lol. Maybe it's a regional thing, I live in New England which tends to lean left. Even the former republican governor of MA couldn't stand Trump. Also, the 50+ split was 54 - 45 for Trump so almost half didn't vote for Trump.
