Baby boomers comprised a larger share of voters in 2024, accounting for 32%, but they are trending lower after hitting a peak of 36% in 2016.
Ocasio-Cortez, a millennial herself, expects the younger generation will soon tip the scales in American politics.
“Millennials are not punk kids anymore. We’re grown adults with mortgages and kids,” she said. “And we—that generation is starting to be decisive at the polls. And there is anger at being ignored, sidelined, having our economic futures mortgaged by the generations that came before us on everything from the economy to climate. And we’re taking the reins.”
From global warming to debt crisis to lack of affordable health insurance (all intentional), Boomers have definitely overstayed their welcome.
I don't have the first clue how I'd determine something like that. Do you? I'm talking about the US Presidential administration.
Maybe you're talking about Congress + the actual presidents we always get? The elected officials themselves are all old as fuck.
Wonder how many of those congressional staffers are millennials? And the executive cabinet, etc., all the many many unelected creatures.
Your take is shallow and bad and betrays a poor understanding of our government and who actually does the "work" in it.
