How young voters will shape the 2025 election
Click below for info and video.
For the first time in Australian history, Generation Z and Millennials will outnumber Baby Boomers at the ballot box in the upcoming Federal Election on 3 May 2025. This generational shift is set to have a profound impact on political engagement and election outcomes.
Younger voters are increasingly moving away from traditional campaign strategies and legacy media, instead turning to social media platforms, alternative news sources, and influencers for political information. As a result, political parties and candidates must rethink how they connect with this dynamic and digitally savvy electorate.
