From the Huffington Post:
The majority of Republicans ages 18 to 29 think gays and lesbians should be allowed to marry, according to a Pew Research poll.
Sixty-one percent of Republicans and those who lean Republican in that age group favor legalizing gay marriage.
While a majority of Democrats regardless of age support gay marriage, Republican views divide strikingly along generational lines, with support dropping precipitously among older members of the party. The youngest cohort is nearly three times more likely to support gay marriage than those 65 and over.
Just 18 percent of Republicans under 30 said that more gay and lesbian couples raising children is a bad thing, compared to about half of those ages 30-64, and 66 percent of those 65 and older.
