Senior voters are key for GOP victory in midterms

Among the American electorate, seniors are the most likely to be registered to vote. Voter registration in the 65-74 age group is an astounding 80.5% and among those 75 years and older, it is 80.1%.

Not only are older voters more likely to be registered, but these Americans are also the most likely to participate in elections. In the 2020 presidential election, 71.9% of Americans 65 years of age and older voted. In comparison, only 48% of Americans in the 18-24 age category voted.

The political party that makes the best appeal to older voters wins elections. For seniors, some of the most critical issues involve retirement and staying healthy without breaking the bank.
