Young Voters
This is depressing but not surprising:
A Pew Research post-election poll found that a majority of young voters who were 18-29 years of age preferred bigger government.
According to the survey, 59% of young voters said "government should do more to solve problems" while only 37% felt "government is doing too many things better left to businesses and individuals."
Almost half of 18-29 year olds are minority group members. Those who say this group will get more conservative as they grow older areignoring the fact that blacks and Latinos do not grow more conservative as they grow older.
