From the NPORS
- About two-thirds of voters ages 18 to 24 (66%) associate with the Democratic Party, compared with 34% who align with the GOP.
- There is a similarly large gap in the partisan affiliation of voters ages 25 to 29 (64% are Democrats or lean that way vs. 32% for Republicans).
- Voters in their 30s also tilt Democratic, though to a lesser extent: 55% are Democrats or Democratic leaners, 42% are Republicans or Republican leaners.
What are you talking about?
A poll that didn’t count Democratic Socialists for Democrats but counted Nazis for Republicans.
I’m talking about the more recent (and more comprehensive and granular) data from NPORS:
"In April, for example, Pew Research Center released data showing a continuation of the familiar pattern in party identification — more liberal to more conservative as the age of respondents increased.
Earlier this week, though, Pew released the most recent iteration of its big, comprehensive National Public Opinion Reference Survey. The NPORS is a benchmark poll that uses a number of different methodologies to ensure responses, including phone, online contact and direct mail. And, as The Washington Post’s Lenny Bronner found after parsing the data, it found a much more complicated interplay between partisan identification and age."
You can read the numerous articles on the data from NYT or the Washington Post if you’d like.
What I linked to was from April 9, 2024 and is the most recent data set.
I found this article, which is saying what you’re saying, but if you look at the actual report I just linked it doesn’t line up with any of the claims in the article. The article seems to be reporting on screenshots and tweets, but they’re all wrong? I don’t really know what’s going on here. How about you actually link to something so we can scrutinize it?
