Millennial vote surges Trump to victory in New Hampshire

Donald Trump surged to victory in New Hampshire, receiving even more votes than Mitt Romney in 2012. The billionaire outperformed predictions and polls — greatly due to millennial vote.

According to the CNN exit polls, Trump received 37 percent of the millennial vote with Texas Sen. Ted Cruz coming in a distant second with 16 percent.

Millennials were Trump’s largest share of any age demographic. He received 35 percent of the Gen-X and Boomer voter, and only 29 percent of the Silent Generation’s vote.

While the sampling size of older vs. younger millennials is unavailable because the sampling size of older millennials was too small, it likely that he received close to 40 percent of GOP voters between the ages of 25 to 29.

He performed better with unmarried people versus married people, but won both groups by a significant margin.
