This report, produced by HIT Strategies in partnership with Third Way, highlights findings from a December 2025 national survey of 1,462 registered male voters ages 18 to 29. The findings show that young men are driven more by concerns around economic stability, authenticity, and accountability than by rigid partisan ideology. The research finds that young men favor candidates and parties they see as genuine and connected to working people, express broad concern about economic affordability and democratic norms, and are seeking leaders who speak plainly and treat their concerns as real heading into the 2026 elections.
