I don’t know about civic duty. In my opinion seniors are more uneasy about any policy that might change their lives in any way, and they tend to vote to maintain the status quo.
To be fair, they are older. They don’t have much time left on this earth and they don’t have the ability to adapt to change as well as younger people. Most of them are not exactly financially stable, and they’re worried that their routine could be disrupted by forces beyond their control. That being said, fear has always been a great motivator, especially for conservative/reactionary types.
Old folks are retired, thus more free time, and I’m guessing there’s a bit of civic duty imprinted on them as well.
