As a whole, Kamala Harris won voters between the ages of 18 and 29 by six points.

But preliminary exit polling indicates that Donald Trump opened up a 16 -point gender gap between young men and young women.

Early estimates show that only 42% of young people turned out to vote, less than in 2020 .

The 2022 midterms took place only months after the US supreme court overturned Roe v Wade in the decision Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health Organization .

Since then, we’ve seen more than a dozen states ban almost all abortions and heard of at least four women dying as a result of abortion bans.
