"A new trend has emerged in American politics: The very youngest voters — 18-to-24-year-olds — say they’re more conservative than the cohort that’s just older,” according to the latest Harvard Youth Poll.
“This new trend — which is true for both genders and emerged only in the last few years — is especially pronounced with men.”
Here’s the results from that youth poll the Axios article doesn’t mention:
The poll also finds:
A significant enthusiasm gap between young Democrats and Republicans, with 74% of young Democrats saying they will “definitely” vote, compared to 60% of young Republicans.
A widening gender gap, nearly doubling from 17 points in the Spring poll to 30 points now, with Harris leading 70% to 23% among likely female voters.
Harris outperforming Trump on key personal qualities and issues, with substantial leads in empathy (+33), relatability (+24), honesty (+22), climate change (+32), abortion (+31), health care (+26), and gun violence prevention (+25) among all young adults.
Harris’s job approval as Vice President has significantly improved, increasing from 32% in the Spring poll to 44% now.
Strong support for progressive policies among young Americans, with 74% favoring capping prescription drug prices and 59% supporting a nationwide law to legalize abortion.
Overwhelming rejection of Project 2025 among young Americans, with only 6% viewing it favorably compared to 48% unfavorably. Even among Republicans, we find 14% viewing it favorably and 23% unfavorably.
The impact of social media, with 53% of young adults encountering memes about Harris online in the last month, 34% of whom say it positively influenced their opinion. Conversely, 56% have seen memes about Trump, with 26% reporting a negative impact on their perception.

Shocking, really. If a horse were running for president, and horses could vote, do you know who they would cast their vote for?
Well we didn’t see that enthusiasm for Hillary so I have no idea what you’re on about.
Also, and I wasn’t expecting I’d have to say this today, women aren’t horses. Additionally, horses are actually pretty egalitarian with their leadership; that’s why they’re such good allies for humans, they don’t mind being led by a person instead of a horse.
Tl;Dr: every part of your comment is wrong.
Can you expand on this?
If society were destroyed, no ruins left to be discovered, no texts left to be read, would the next highly sentient species to emerge create their own gods? Would they worship a sapient male who resides anywhere, everywhere and nowhere? They certainly wouldn’t recreate the stories of Mohammed or Jesus or any others. It is nice to meet you on this great plain, neighbor.
He’s meat brain who thinks women only vote for women.
