Some really interesting data coming. Gen Z voted for Trump in it's majority, something I would never expect to see. It seems they are not as liberal as progressive as some would say. Also it seems while trump votes are not that far from 2020 and 2016, there were 15 million votes less for Harris compared to Biden. Thats crazy.  

He didn't, although he managed to swing them a bit vs. the last election. Bush 2000 is still the most recent Republican to win the youth vote.

I'm more surprised by the Gen Y tie since that used to be strongly pro-Obama in the past. Gen X has lead in their brains so the gap is expected and the older votes swung a bit toward Harris, suggesting the economy did play a strong role in the results.

I got a different breakdown, with H 45% and T 52% on the 18-24 bracket, then H 55% and T 43% on the 25-29 bracket.

I wouldnt consider 25-29y people as gen Z but what do I know, these definitions keep on changing all the time.
