But there's an additional issue. People are living longer now than they were ever before in the last 230 years of the US. I think that might have something to do with pushing the wave back further.
Much to the dismay of many, the first year baby boomers are 62 and will be voting strong another 25-30 years and the younger boomers much beyond. My parents generation is still going rather strong although not for long and this big block of millennials some aren't of voting age for another 13 years.
