A stark new gender divide has formed among the country’s youngest voters. Young men have drifted toward Donald Trump, while young women are surging toward Kamala Harris.


As a result, men and women under 30, once similar in their politics, are now farther apart than any other generation of voters.


Claire Cain Miller, a reporter who covers gender for The New York Times, discusses a divide that is defining this election.


Guest: Claire Cain Miller (https://www.nytimes.com/by/claire-cai...) , a reporter for The New York Times covering gender, families and education.
