This is obviously a very subjective question and I have a feeling this thread might get quite chaotic.

Harris won “young white women” as a group, but as I’ve said elsewhere Conservatives are more likely to adhere conventional standards of beauty, so if your benchmark for “pretty” is some form of conventional beauty, possibly Trump.

You also see this phenomenon in young men too - men who are jacked seem disproportionately likely to support Trump and it’s not necessarily because they’re healthier, many workout solely for the aesthetic.

That's impossible to answer because attractiveness is extremely subjective, and there's no way to get a representative sample.

[CentristRepublican]

Probably Trump, if I had to guess.

No doubt Harris won young white girls who think attractiveness is a totally subjective, socially constructed value. That’s not what the question is asking though.

There's no reason why the Harris vote would have skewed ugly or hot, come on.

Yeah, obviously

It's basically as ProgMod said. Following conventional standards of beauty, there's reason to believe Trump did somewhat better with "pretty" people.

No way to know, but probably "pretty young white girls" voted to the right of "ugly young white girls."

Reactionary is too dumb to understand "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". News at 11.

There is definitely evidence that attractive people are more conservative in general: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29355104/#:~:text=Controlling%20for%20socioeconomic%20status%2C%20we,conservative%2C%20and%20identify%20as%20Republican.

Some suggest that this is because attractive people tend to feel like they "earned" their good fortune and have less empathy for those less fortunate, just like people born into wealthy families also do.

While few people would argue that there isn't such a thing as personal preferences, it is actually well established that there is overall a good amount of agreement on what is attractive: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6523404/#:~:text=Men%20and%20women%20as%20well,early%20stage%20in%20our%20evolution.

"Girls" would be too young to vote. I believe the term you are looking for is "women".

Subjective but Harris by a lot. She won young women by a big margin, and blue states tend to have more conventionally attractive people due to physical fitness
