Summary
Donald Trump’s popularity among Generation Z voters has sharply declined since the 2024 election, according to a new Economist/YouGov poll.
His net favorability among 18-29-year-olds has dropped from +19 in November to -18, raising concerns for Republicans about sustaining youth support.
While Trump gained ground with young voters in 2024, recent policies—such as his mass deportation plan and targeting of DEI initiatives—may have contributed to this decline.
What do these numbers mean? How is there negatives?
I would expect a scale from 0-100
Edit: its a scale from -100 to +100
Levels of dislike (-100 towards zero), levels of like (levels of like towards +100), would be my interpretation. It is an overly complex way of doing it though.
Well, that’s kinda dumb.
