The article notes 1974 showed roughly equal turnout between younger and older voters. In November, expectations are for older voters to outvote under 30 by about two to one. By 2022 analysts predict a widening gap to four to one.
The piece analyzes how aging voters outnumber and influence campaigns in Kansas and beyond. It cites ads by Rep. Todd Tiahrt and opponent Carlos Nolla, plus a chorus of young skeptics. Projections show older voters rising to overtake the young, while trends reveal decreasing turnout among under 30s due to mobility, delayed life milestones, partisan identity erosion, and cynicism. It notes generational views on privatization, Social Security, and government roles.
