3. 66% of 18-29 year olds voted for Obama

that's anyone born from about 1978-1990 which would be most of the early Millenials but a few very late Gen Xers. Looking at how the 18-29 youth vote has voted in the past I was surprised that in 1976, Carter only won 51% of the 18-29 youth vote, which at that time was all boomers. I guess the boomers weren't as liberal as people thought they were, but that's a different discussion.
