Jeff Brauer, a professor at Keystone College, has been researching the political leanings of Generation Z, concluding that the next generation differs substantially from millennials. His findings show that Gen Z is more fiscally conservative than millennials were, and generally resemble the politics of moderate Republicans.
The Professor says “Politically, Generation Z is liberal-moderate with social issues, like support for marriage equality and civil rights, and moderate-conservative with fiscal and security issues,”. Adding: “While many are not connected to the two major parties and lean independent, Gen Z’s inclinations generally fit moderate Republicans.”

Notably, Brauer’s research has indicated that growing up in an age of constant terror threats, school shootings, and economic instability has led Gen Z to prize economic stability and security more highly than millennials.
