Democrat Maryland Gov. Wes Moore struggled to give CNN an answer on Sunday about why the young man is away from his party.
As midterm elections are turning the corner, the Democrats Try it After losing a major voting block, they reorganize that they once had strong holds, including young male voters. In “State of State,” CNN host Dana Bash highlighted how President Donald Trump beat the younger men in November, asking if the governor believes that the party’s policies, message, or both.
“Well, we’re thinking about the foundations of our race in the first place. It was young people, and a lot of it was young men.
“I think we brought them in because if you look at data about young men in our society, it falls,” Moore added. “The level of suicide rates among young men has exploded. When we see the fact that employment rates and number of job participation have not grown since 1964 for young men in this country…”
According to AP VotingMore than half of male voters under the age of 30 supported the president in November. This is a shift from 2020 when former President Joe Biden gained a similar share. According to the survey, around six in ten young men voted for Trump, but also gained great support from both Hispanic and black young men who previously supported the Democrats.

Bash then jumped in and she apologised, asking if the governor had improved his support among young male voters at the state level, but she was in a national shortage for the party.
“I think we need to address the fact that the data and what happened and the reason we really got here is just looking at the data.
Moore offered people in the juvenile justice system a second chance, urging viewers to “follow the data” and pointing to his state’s efforts to recruit more men into classrooms and healthcare.
“So, while I’m proud of the fact that Maryland is leading the accusation about this, I want this to be a bigger national conversation about what we’re doing to fold up the young men,” Moore said. “It’s not just elections, so it’s about the future of our society that we can solve this challenge.”
Since November, Democrats have struggled to get together behind a unified message and leader. Some have suggested that the party’s recent defeat was due to its policy, but others have pointed to issues with its brand and messaging.
A CNN/SSRS poll released on March 16 showed that the Democrats’ favorable rating, which fell 20 points since January 2021, fell to a record 29% decline.
