Young voters lean Democratic in Michigan and swing states

Original: Youth vote skews heavily to Democrats in Michigan, swing states, economic issues stay top concerns

New reporting from Michigan Advance shows young voters in Michigan and other swing states skew heavily toward Democrats, while economic issues remain their top concern heading into the election. The findings highlight a persistent generational divide in US swing-state politics, with inflation, jobs and cost-of-living pressures shaping how young voters weigh their choices despite their partisan lean.

Why now: Election coverage of swing states is intensifying as parties court young voters whose support could decide close races.
