Recommendation
The 2018 US midterm elections revealed an unprecedented age gap between Democratic and Republican voters. Among voters under the age of 30, over two-thirds favored Democratic congressional candidates.

In an essay for The Atlantic, two researchers from different generations and opposing sides of the political spectrum explain the possible political implications of America’s party-realignment.
