Young voters (18 to 29) are breaking for Democrats by a massive 37-point margin.

This is vastly larger than the 21-point margin by which Hillary Clinton won them 2016 and even outpaces the 22-point margin Democrats won young voters by in the huge “blue wave” of the 2006 midterms.



We are doing our part, at least those of us who voted.
