just dropped an article with Brian Schaffner and Steve Ansolabehere showing that claims about young voters flipping to Trump aren't supported by CES, VoteCast, or exit poll data. low response rates and vote misreporting help explain the confusion tufts-pol.medium.com/have-young-vot…

As much as I wish Mike Bailey were right here, we have that 35% response rate survey, and it's the American National Election Studies and it famously in recent years has had some of the exact same issues as lower response rate surveys fielded at significantly lower cost
