jordanlund, 23 days ago I think the #1 problem is defining “youth voter” as 18-29. College age is 18-24, but I don’t see anything looking specifically at that demographic. For 18-29: …tufts.edu/…/state-state-youth-voter-turnout-data… “Nationally, CIRCLE estimates that 23% of eligible young Americans cast a ballot in the 2022 midterm elections.” Now, problem #1, that’s a mid-term election which always draws lower voter participation. 2nd is looking at 18-29 instead of 18-24. ny1.com/…/young-americans-harvard-poll-trump-bide… “The U.S. Census Bureau estimated 54.1% of 18- to 29-year-olds voted in 2020, which had the highest youth turnout overall of any election in the 21st century.”
