More Evidence of the 2018 Midterm Turnout Boom

The official Census numbers on 2018 voter turnout are here, and they’re even more impressive than previously estimated. Fully 53% of eligible voters cast a ballot, and while turnout rose in basically every demographic group, the biggest increase occurred among 18- to 29-year-olds, from 20% to 36% (a rise of 79%).
