Michigan had the highest youth turnout in 2022

Tennessee dead last at 13%. Wonder how much that changes in '24 after what happened in the past week. Young voters have to realize that they have to vote if they want a government that works for them instead of punishing the few who advocate for their right to be alive.

I would not be surprised if a majority of young voters in TN were in fact conservative and in fact are closest to ExtremeRepublican in their views for how the whole expelling saga went.

I highly doubt that a majority of young people in TN agree with two representatives being expelled from the State House for protesting. They might be closer to the republican party on guns than young people in some other states but I doubt a majority agree with them on that issue either.

White evangelicals have a lot of children. Are you suggesting that the enough of the children of evangelicals have turned against the GOP that under-30s favor gun control, as a whole? I agree with the former - not even ExtremeRepublican sided with them on this, if he is to be used as a proxy for young pro-GOP opinion - but the latter is unproven.

If anything, young conservatives tend to be more anti-gun control than older ones.

Who the hell said anything about them turning away from the GOP? I said it's likely most young people in TN favor some kind of sensible gun control. Most republicans (like Americans overwhelmingly as a whole) favor common sense gun control laws like banning assault weapons, bump stocks, high capacity mags, background checks, etc., they are just horribly represented by republican politicians on this issue.
