SEATTLE — Today, AARP, the Alzheimer’s Disease Data Initiative (AD Data Initiative), and the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington announced the Dementia Risk Reduction Project, a new collaboration to study how factors -- air pollution, alcohol use, depression, diabetes, high body mass index, hearing loss, hypertension, low education, physical inactivity, social isolation, smoking, and traumatic brain injury—vary by state and their correlation to dementia. The research will explore causal links between each factor and dementia, providing valuable information for both consumers and policymakers to address dementia risks in their communities.

WASHINGTON — Today, AARP released a poll of voters from the 43 most competitive congressional districts this election season.

Voters ages 50 and older were key in the 2024 election. Data shows that across the country, older voters made up 55% of the electorate, and that winning the 50+ vote was key to winning races up and down the ballot around the country. AARP’s survey found House Republicans won voters 50+ by a 50% - 47% margin while these districts were a dead heat among voters overall, allowing Republicans to maintain a narrow advantage in the House of Representatives.
