Yes, the GOP has a Gen Z problem

In the 2022 Midterms, a whopping 77 percent of Generation Z (those born between 1997-2012) voted for Democrats, while 56 percent of Millennials (those born between 1981-1996) voted for the party of Joe Biden, John Fetterman, and the squad.

And now for the really bad news.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, by 2028, Millennials and Gen Z will represent a plurality of eligible voters. By 2036, those two cohorts will represent more than 60 percent of would-be voters.

In other words, the most uninformed group of voters—those with the least amount of life experience—will soon be deciding who sits in the Oval Office and who controls Congress over the course of the next several elections.

[While younger voters are being fed a steady stream of lies about objective realities, I’m not sure there’s much the GOP can do except stand on truth. When these voters realize the costs of delusion, they’ll look for a principled home, so perhaps the best we can do is to establish conservatism as that principled platform. And hope the GOP follows suit. — Ed]
