I dunno I would say that most of the people I know from all age groups, all voted in a variety of ways, I know several people younger than me some in their early 20s who voted leave, I know of one in particular, she would be in her mid 20s, who when I asked her how she intended to vote, replied "in what?" I said "the referendum" she replied "the refer what?" I said "how are you going to vote, leave or remain?" "leave or remain what?" "the EU" "what's a EU?", I gave up at that point.

an elderly couple I know who are staunch Tory supporters voted to leave saying that it didn't feel right to not support a Tory PM but they were determined that leave was the answer, I couldn't help wondering why as they are both in their 80s.
I also know a few less 'political' friends who voted leave because Cameron was in favour of remain, and one or two who 'don't like immigrants'
