Voter outcomes in the 2024 presidential election in Washington State have been revealed in fresh data analysis.
In the 2024 elections, a significant number of Americans exercised their right to vote, with some demographic groups showing higher participation rates than others.
Across the nation, adults aged 65 and older had the highest voting rate of any age group, with 78.8% of this demographic casting their votes in Washington state. This was higher than the national average of 65.3%, and the state of New Jersey, which boasted the highest voting rate among adults 65 and older at 84.7%. Interestingly, West Virginia had the lowest voting rate among this age group, with only 62.8% of adults 65 and older voting.
Among the younger demographic, eligible 18-to-24 year olds, voting turnout was more varied. Nationwide, only 17 states and the District of Columbia saw the majority of these young adults vote, with Washington, D.C., leading the way at 73.2%. However, Washington state itself was not among the states where the majority of eligible 18-to-24 year olds voted, with a turnout of 49.7%. Arizona had the lowest voter turnout among this age group, with only 31.9% of eligible young adults casting their votes.
When it came to racial and ethnic groups, voting turnout varied significantly. In Washington state, the highest voter turnout was among white, non-Hispanic voters, at 75.5%. The voting turnout among Black voters in the state was 49.2%, while among Hispanic voters it was 50.9%.
It's worth noting that historically, young adults tend to vote at a lower rate than older adults. This trend was evident in the 2024 elections, with 66.9% of eligible women and 63.7% of eligible men voting nationwide.
Interestingly, only four states saw men voting at a higher rate than women in the 2024 elections: Ohio, South Carolina, Idaho, and Maine.
In conclusion, the 2024 elections saw a diverse participation of Americans from different age groups and racial and ethnic backgrounds. While some demographic groups showed higher voting rates than others, it's clear that the majority of eligible voters across the nation exercised their right to vote.
