The Liberals have certainly dropped, but their drop of 8 points is exactly the same as the NDP + Green gains (3% and 5% respectively) in that age group, so there isn't much evidence of voters shifting from the Liberals to the Conservatives.

It's shockingly sad that Liberals are doing so poorly with this demographic; it should be the easiest group for them to win over.
Shows how bad JT is; young people just can't respect him as a leadership figure.
