First, it's worth noting that Washington, D.C., was a standout in the 2024 elections, as the majority of eligible 18-to-24 year olds cast their votes. However, the voting turnout among this age group was lower in Washington state, at 49.7%, but still higher than in Arizona, where only 31.9% of eligible young adults voted.

Interestingly, four states, namely Ohio, South Carolina, Idaho, and Maine, had higher voting rates among men compared to women. Nationwide, 66.9% of eligible women and 63.7% of eligible men voted.
It's also worth mentioning that only 17 states, plus the District of Columbia, had a majority of eligible 18-to-24 year olds voting in the 2024 elections. This indicates a persistent trend of young adults voting at a lower rate compared to older adults nationwide.
In conclusion, the 2024 elections in Washington and across the United States showed a diverse voting landscape, with varying turnout rates among different age groups and ethnicities. While young adults in Washington, D.C., demonstrated a high turnout, the state of Washington itself had a lower turnout among this age group compared to other states.
