SWINGING SENIORS

摘要

In recent years, no group of voters has been more solidly Republican than seniors-especially White seniors. A Harvard University study found that in 2016, Trump won senior voters by 13 points overall, while exit polls show he won White senior voters by 20 points. But that strength has vanished: No group has swung harder to Biden than senior voters. Recent polls showed him winning 65+ voters by 9 points. And because seniors are overrepresented in battleground states such as Arizona, Florida, and Michigan, they could prove to be the key deciders in the election-if they stick with Biden and don't swing back to Trump before November.
