How do you figure? I’m seeing that voter turnout was 72%, which is higher than even the general election, and it’s unlikely that improving that even among young voters probably wouldn’t have made a difference.
We also carry out a back-of-the-envelope calculation regarding turnout. Young people voted overwhelmingly in favour of Remain but had a lower turnout than older age groups. We find that a higher turnout of young voters would have been very unlikely to result in a different referendum outcome, partly because their turnout was already elevated compared with previous UK-wide elections.
