A longstanding platitude of American politics is that older voters tend to prefer Republican candidates, while younger voters lean towards Democrats. This pattern held in recent elections. In 2020, Democrat Joe Biden secured the support of voters under 50, particularly capturing 65% of the 18-24 age group.Meanwhile, Republican Donald Trump garnered 52% of voters over 50, who represented more than half of the electorate. This division was evident in 2016 as well, when Trump won the Electoral College despite losing the popular vote to Hillary Clinton. Clinton performed better among younger voters (ages 18-44), while Trump was favored by those aged 45 and older.

Peru's recent performance in the Copa América 2024 offers a mix of cautious optimism and lingering concerns. Under coach Jorge Fossati, the team showed slight improvements against Chile but still struggled to instill confidence. The standout performer has been Carlos Zambrano, whose defensive prowess was crucial. As captain, Zambrano's experience shone through, making critical interceptions and winning duels, which kept Chile at bay. His stats were impressive: first in touches (39), duels won (9/11), and accurate long passes (5/6).
