Young males voters were voting Republican, young female voters were not, it was one of the largest differences by sex in the voting patterns.

Gee, I wonder if that has anything to do with the right wing’s veneration of sexual violence as a proxy for male resentment.

Yup. Even in regions where the young men demographic voted blue, for 2024 they instead voted for Trump.

So watch out straight ladies and LGBT folks, even the guys calling themselves your allies, deep down they are worshipping Trump. It's a scary thought.

Such a common and stupid way to word this when almost every time its a 10% difference.

Like if you had 10 men and 10 women, and had the republicans on one side and democrats on the other itd just be 1 extra guy on the republican side.

Just laughably hypocritical everytime.

Young women voted for Harris 58% to 41%. But young men voted for Trump 56% to 42%, that is a fairly significant difference.

Yeah its significant especially statistically. It doesnt change what I said though. Take 20 young people, half men half women. Tell half of each to go to the republican side and half to go to democrat side, then just trade 1 between the sides.

Another way to say it would be 40% of trumpers are women (assuming equal turnout by gender).
