As the U.S. presidential election looms, some Gen Zers might be walking around as a liar, liar, (with their) pants on fire.
So finds Axios in its poll of more than 1,800 registered voters, conducted by the Harris Poll between October 22 and 24. Almost a quarter (23%) of respondents across generations say they have lied to someone close to them about who they’re voting for, but that number is highest among Gen Z—at 48%. The number of fibbers decreases as respondents age, at 38% of millennials, 17% of Gen Xers, and 6% of boomers.
