Generational Change and Moral Sentiment

As the Millennial Generation surges into the electorate, change is becoming a political fact. A new CNN poll asked Americans their moral sentiment on a number of cultural questions. Voters under 50 years old are more comfortable with gay behavior (21%), living with someone unmarried (20%), pornography (19%) and smoking marijuana (14%) than older voters. Interestingly, abortion is seen as immoral similarly by Generation Y (18-34 years old) and the Baby Boomers.
