    Counterargument to this, from the viewpoint of the gqp:

    America is getting older, so the boomer vote ends up counting more. Young people don’t vote.

      While I agree those that vote are getting older. The reason young people don’t vote has nothing to do with not wanting to vote, it’s the GOP constantly change the rules and places of voting.

        Young people not voting has been a cliche forever. This really is nothing new, unfortunately. Its actually been getting better in recent elections but still is one 50%of 18-25 which is low. And republicans know this.
