I understand your question but to choose the right answer requires more information on the context. Just by looking at the choices I'd say both are possible.

many, more elderly people looks very odd. Try many of the more elderly. (Meaning "more elder than the other who have been discussed.)

As the Baby Boomers approach and pass 60, they continue to embrace technology, but many of the more elderly have a harder time using cell phones and other high-tech gadgets we take for granted every day.
