(61,033 posts)in the '60s the effin young repugs had tables at the student unions right next to those of Students for a Democratic Society, the Black Student Unions, the Chicano groups, and the socialists. Libertarians were there too but they were as confused as to who they were as was everyone else (the fact that they liked to get high contributed to that).
A 53% to 47% split favoring the reputs sounds a little too high in my opinion as many Boomers stayed home or voted for Stein in 2016 because of the Sanders effect.
I would say the margin of error is a +/- 3%.
Oh, and btw, GenXers and Millennials have a similar dichotomy, they just don't realize it yet (maybe the GenXers do). All those racist nazis at Charlottesville in the khakis and white, polo shirts certainly weren't Boomers.
