Support for Trump rises among young men in 2024 election
In the 2024 election, support for Donald Trump surged among young men, with over half of men under 30 voting for him. This marks a significant shift from 2020, when many in this group favored Joe Biden. Young white men showed the strongest support for Trump, with about 60% voting for him, compared to 50% in 2020. Young Latino men were more divided, while a third of young Black men supported Trump, maintaining a steady view of the Democratic Party. Trump's campaign effectively used digital media and pop culture to connect with younger voters. His appearances on podcasts and at sporting events helped reshape his image among young men, contrasting with the Democratic campaign's less effective outreach.
