Many assumed Vice President Kamala Harris, as a woman, would have secured the vote among young women in the 2024 presidential election. However, according to an exit poll from the Associated Press, this was not the case. It turns out at least 40% of Gen Z women who are under the age of 30 chose to vote for Donald Trump in what experts have described as a “historic comeback” for the former president.
It seemed Harris believed the best way to reach young women was to make abortion the epicenter of her campaign. In the 100-plus days of her candidacy, she touted the claim that a Trump victory would mean all so-called “reproductive freedoms” and “rights” would be stripped away. And while at least 13% of registered female voters listed abortion as their top issue, there were a large number of women who didn’t share this concern. According to The Daily Mail, 40% of this demographic said their number one issue was the economy. Eleven percent named “immigration” as their biggest worry.
Outside of abortion, Harris also attempted to cater to young women by raking in celebrity endorsements. Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, and other notable figures popular among this group announced their support for the Democratic presidential nominee. Additionally, Harris appeared to have immense support on the prominent social media platform TikTok where she was commonly referred to by the nickname “Mamala.” Harris also chose to sit down for an interview with Alex Cooper, the host of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast — a show that largely emphasizes sex-related material.
But despite doing what Harris felt would resonate best with young women, the results reveal that her efforts were, in many ways, unsuccessful. In fact, Breitbart noted that President Joe Biden ranked better with young female voters than Harris did during his 2020 campaign. Outlets have brought attention to the fact that Harris’s six to eight-point lead among women in the 2024 election paled in comparison to Biden’s 25-point lead. And even in the 2016 election, Democratic presidential candidate Hilary Clinton still secured a 19-point lead. Several experts have taken a stab at explaining the reasons why more young women voted for Trump over Harris than expected.
“There’s an assumption made about Gen Z,” psychotherapist and author Jonathan Alpert told the Daily Mail. “[M]any so-called political experts think that just because someone is in their teens to late 20s and female that means they automatically would vote for Harris.” However, he added, “At the end of the day, Gen Z cared about many things, but safety and prosperity seemed to trump other things that the Harris campaign gave way too much power to.” […]
