*Census Bureau Releases 2022 Congressional Election Voting Report*

Voting and Registration in the Election of November 2022 [ [link removed] ]

The voter registration rate (69.1%) for the 2022 congressional election was the highest registration rate of a midterm election in 30 years. However, the voter turnout rate (52.2%) was lower than in the 2018 (53.4%) midterm elections, according to the new Voting and Registration in the Election of November 2022 [ [link removed] ] report released today by the U.S. Census Bureau. The report, based on data from the 2022 Current Population Survey (CPS) Voting and Registration Supplement [ [link removed] ], builds on detailed tables [ [link removed] ] released earlier this year.

The report highlights patterns in voter turnout over time among the citizen voting-age population (CVAP) and explores how demographic groups were over- and under-represented among voters in the 2022 congressional elections compared to the CVAP as a whole.

* The 65 years or older group was overrepresented among voters by 6.7 percentage points, comprising 30.4% of all voters and 23.8% of the CVAP, while voters ages 18 to 29 were underrepresented by 7.9 percentage points, comprising 11.7% of all voters and 19.6% of the CVAP.
