The electorate is also aging, with voters above the age of 65 making up an increasing slice. America’s electorate is growing more diverse. By the next presidential election, racial minorities will exceed 40 percent of the eligible electorate in six states, according to a report released in April by a consortium of think tanks. Generally, as the electorate becomes more diverse, that would shift the momentum increasingly toward Democrats in future years. In other scenarios, racial minorities begin to turn out at the same rate as white voters ― also likely a boon for Democrats, unless minority groups begin shifting toward the GOP.
