Yea I can’t say I’m surprised but at the same time they skewed more right wing from this last election, so the economic policies being implemented by Trump, and the ramifications it’ll have on their socio-economic status, is something they voted for. Kind of hard to feel bad for a generation that’s shootings themselves in the foot.

“Right now, too many people across the UK are living without a financial cushion or are burdened by debt,”

I doubt anyone in the study voted in the US elections.

Even if any did, they would be part of voters abroad (US citizens can vote by mail if living outside the country) who are an even bluer voting block. If memory serves me right, it's on the order of like D+60 overall

This article wasn't about the US, but in terms of the US:

The margins dipped, but they didn't flip to voting for Trump overall

18-29 year-olds voted Harris+4 overall and Young women in particular voted Harris+18

Headlines are often misleading about changes within group voting patterns
