More conservative than in the past, but so is the whole country (by votes- most Americans don't vote). Compared to other age groups though, gen z voted less conservative (unless you consider that Harris is basically a conservative)

I didn't mean to imply that Gen Z is less conservative than older generations. A pretty low bar to pass under lol

how does the word "conservative" mean the same thing from generation to generation if the issues important to conservatives change every generation? I'm asking about the term, not the politics

Keep in mind that those numbers are always going to be off from reality. Also it will vary heavily by state.
