The perception has been that boomers are set in their ways, and thus unpersuadable. But some of the callers mentioned their children’s ages (20s generally) which is means those parents probably skew more Gen X. It was an interesting, informal poll of sorts.

I’m listening to WNYC’s election coverage (never stopped even after moving to LA) and the most interesting calls have been from parents who say they were persuaded by their children to vote for Zohran Mamdani. It shows that those dinner table conversations can sway people.
