A person arrives to vote at a polling station on Election Day, in The Villages, Florida.
In a heated presidential race, there's one age cohort — voters ages 50 and up — who may help decide the ultimate winner.
About 90% ages 50 and up say they are extremely motivated to vote, AARP has found, versus 75% of voters under age 50.
"It's all related to day-to-day pocketbook issues, and who's better able to handle those issues moving forward," Hishta said.
Caregiving is another area this cohort is paying attention to, since a substantial portion of people ages 50 and over serve in those roles, he said.
