A rather curious video about what the US electoral map would look like if, in the midterm elections of 2026, only certain groups of the population had voted

The authors show how the country's political map changes depending on whose votes are counted: men, women, white voters, independents, or rural residents.

The same United States, the same elections — but completely different results. A vivid illustration of how deeply polarized society is in the country.

By the way, more than two years ago in the Financial Times, columnist John Burn-Murdock wrote about the global political split between young men and women.

According to the data he cited, in the US women aged 18–30 were 30 percentage points more liberal than men of the same age (on the chart). In Germany the gap was 30 points, and in the United Kingdom it was 25.

The author noted that young women are increasingly moving left, while men remain conservative or move to the right.

His main conclusion: Generation Z is effectively becoming two different generations with opposing political views. And the consequences of this split could go far beyond elections — affecting relationships between the sexes, marriage, and birthrates.

Довольно любопытное видео о том, как выглядела бы электоральная карта США, если бы на промежуточных выборах 2026 года голосовали только определённые группы населения

Авторы показывают, как меняется политическая карта страны в зависимости от того, чьи голоса учитывать: мужчин, женщин, белых избирателей, независимых или жителей сельской местности.

Одни и те же США, одни и те же выборы - но совершенно разные результаты. Наглядная иллюстрация того, насколько сильно поляризированно общество в стране.

К слову, ещё более двух лет назад в Financial Times обозреватель Джон Берн-Мердок писал о глобальном политическом расколе между молодыми мужчинами и женщинами.

Согласно приведённым им данным, в США женщины 18-30 лет были на 30 процентных пунктов либеральнее мужчин того же возраста (на графике). В Германии разрыв составлял 30 пунктов, в Великобритании - 25.

Автор отмечал, что молодые женщины всё чаще смещаются влево, тогда как мужчины остаются консервативными или движутся вправо.

Его главный вывод: поколение Z фактически превращается в два разных поколения с противоположными политическими взглядами. И последствия этого раскола могут выйти далеко за пределы выборов - вплоть до отношений между полами, браков и рождаемости.
