Millennial Conservatism and Civic Engagement: No, Really, What Do Young

Conservatives Want?

Jane Coaston
MTV News

Abstract
Young conservatives are here to stay, and in 2016, they voted in higher numbers --
and exhibited higher engagement with candidates and issues -- than they had in the
past 20 years. But millennial conservatives aren't social conservatives, and they
aren't necessarily fiscal conservatives, either. Jane Coaston reviewed the latest
polling data and analytics in a discussion about what we're hearing -- and not
hearing -- from a demographic that will impact our politics, and our policies, for
decades to come.
