Have Young People Really Turned MAGA?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

43% : Rather, the swing seems to have resulted from moderate-to-somewhat-liberal young voters deciding to bet on Mr. Trump out of concern about the state of the economy -- and from young moderates and progressives who chose to stay home because they thought Ms. Harris was either too progressive or not progressive enough.
26% : The more the Trump administration caters to these voters by doubling down on prayer in public schools, for example, or pursuing a national abortion ban or imposing restrictions on L.G.B.T.Q.+ rights, the more it risks alienating younger, more socially accepting voters who swung toward Mr. Trump for bigger paychecks and less expensive housing -- especially if the economy falters.
23% : The data suggest that the swing in young adults voting for Donald Trump did not reflect a major shift in ideology.
