WASHINGTON – A sharp increase in the number of voters from the youngest two generations helped President Joe Biden win the 2020 election, according to a new study from a Democratic analytics firm, boosting him over former President Donald Trump despite the incumbent’s high levels of support among seniors.
The report, published Monday by the Democratic firm Catalist, found that millennial and Generation Z voters together constituted a much higher share of the electorate in the 2020 presidential race compared to 2016, casting nearly one-third of all votes (31%) last year. The two generations accounted for 23% of all votes four years earlier.
