Wow. Look at these youth vote margins. Mississippi was D+53, tied with MN at the top. In NC, TX, SC and OH, all flips, young voters were more Democratic than in OR. Young voters look crucial to the unexpected Senate wins. (Estimates from CIRCLE at Tufts.)

Horizontal stacked bar chart titled "State by State: The Youth Vote in 2026 U.S. Senate Races" by CIRCLE at Tufts University. It displays the vote share of voters aged 18–29 across 25 states. Youth voters heavily favored Democratic candidates in nearly every state, ranging from 49% in West Virginia to 76% in Minnesota, Mississippi, and Virginia. The sole exception is Nebraska, where an independent/other candidate won 62% over the Republican's 38%
