Concept information
Preferred term
age and voting behavior
Definition
- TRADITIONALLY, THERE HAS not been much of a disparity of the vote choice among citizens of different ages in the United States. Despite the stereotype that younger voters tend to be more liberal than older voters, younger voters have been just as likely to support Republican candidates as older voters.
