Millennials mostly supported Hillary Clinton in the 2016 general election on Tuesday, but the youthful voting bloc fell short of their efforts from 2012. Exit poll estimates showed 54 percent of young voters supported the Democrat, with 46 percent supporting the eventual winner, Republican Donald Trump.

Conversely, millennials rallied behind President Barack Obama's re-election efforts with 60 percent support four years ago, when youth support was equally if not more critical.
