Republicans also picked up an additional 7% from black women, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/interactive\/2022\/politics\/exit-polls-2022-midterm-2018-shift\/\">exit poll data<\/a> collected by CNN.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats enjoyed a 29% edge among Latino men in 2018, but that was slashed to just 8% this time around. Latino women support also rose 14%.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans also cut their margin of support from voters aged 18-29. In 2018, Democrats were +35% from that voting bloc, but that was cut to 28% in 2022. Support from 30-44 years old also went from +19 to +4.<\/p>\n<p>The GOP made other inroads. Democrats enjoyed a +19 margin from women in 2018, but that fell to just +8 this year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Democrats took control of the House after the 2018 election, a little more than half of voters were women and the party had a huge advantage among them. Even though women represented a similar majority of voters in 2022, Democrats\u2019 lead appears to be cut noticeably,\u201d CNN reported.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans grew their support among men. In 2018, Republicans were +4 over Democrats. This time around, that number soared to +14.<\/p>\n<p>There was another startling finding in the exit poll data. Democrats enjoyed a +33 margin among urban voters in the last midterms, but that fell to just 17% this midterm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost American voters lived in the suburbs in both 2018 and 2022. But while suburban voters were evenly split when Democrats took control of the House four years ago, they moved toward Republicans in 2022,\u201d CNN reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAn already-strong Republican lead among rural voters got even bigger and Republicans even ate into Democrats\u2019 lead in urban areas,\u201d according to the data. Rural support went from +14 to +29.<\/p>\n<p>The GOP also picked up votes from moderates, cutting Democrats\u2019 2018 margin of +26 to +15.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBoth Democrats and Republicans improved their performance among the party faithful. But Republicans built a lead among voters who don\u2019t have a favorable view of either party. Democrats lost their edge among voters who have a favorable view of both parties,\u201d according to the data.<\/p>\n<p>But according to Tufts University, young voters had a real effect on some close races.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the Pennsylvania Senate race, where Democrat John Fetterman won by a slim 1% margin, youth ages 18-29 preferred Fetterman 70% to 28%, compared to 55% to 42% among voters ages 30-44, with voters over 45 preferring Republican candidate Dr. [Mehmet] Oz,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/circle.tufts.edu\/2022-election-center\">according<\/a> to the college\u2019s Center for Information &#038; Research on Civic Learning &#038; Engagement (CIRCLE).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the Georgia Senate race that may go to a runoff election, whereas of midnight on election night less than 1% separated the candidates, youth backed Democratic incumbent Senator Raphael Warnock 63% to 36%,\u201d CIRCLE reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVoters ages 30-44 backed Warnock 56% to 41%, while voters over 45 gave a majority of their votes to GOP challenger Herschel Walker. Notably, the youth share of the vote in Georgia was 13%, slightly higher than the national rate,\u201d the center reported.<\/p>\n<p><em>The views expressed in this piece are the author\u2019s own and do not necessarily represent those of The Daily Wire.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Joseph Curl has covered politics for 35 years, including 12 years as White House correspondent for a national newspaper.
