    These are 2017 numbers, self-reported. Boomers aren’t liberal, they are afraid of being disowned by their children for voting for Trump.

      I take it that providing other sources or data to support my assertion would be pointless? You’ve just decided “boomer bad” and that’s it…

          Here you go. You have newer data than April?

          Nope, I’m gonna thank you for providing more recent data which shows something interesting - Boomers as a generation grew more Dem leaning until relatively recently. So obviously I need to correct my assertion that boomers lean liberal, which clearly is no longer the case.

          But… and I’m sure you knew I’d have a but… One of the things people here do is issue the blanket “boomer bad” declaration as if ALL Boomers are conservative. Clearly, your data shows about a 45% Dem to 50% Republican split. To me this is an incredibly important point.

            Lol seriously. Also your conclusion was obvious, but I guess that is because I’ve also been paying a modicum of attention over the last few years

              Also your conclusion was obvious

              Can you define in real terms the practical difference between 45% Dem vs 50% Dem ?

          You going to appreciate the high quality source you received and change your point of view?

          What is my view again?

        Boomers are bad, dipshit.

          You sound like you just graduated from high school.
