| Subject: Reality: Majority of Democrats are not liberal Sun Jan 19, 2020 10:41 pm | |
| A major pollster reveals that the Democratic Party is not a bastion of unyielding liberalism. The Pew Research Center offers demographic details that could be of interest to such grassroots organizations as Black Voices for Trump, Black Republicans Activists, Latinos for Trump, GOP Latinos, plus the WalkAway Campaign, a national group which supports disenchanted Democrats who want to “walk away” from their party. Here are the telling numbers: moderates and conservatives make up 51% of all Democratic voters while 47% of those Dem voters are liberal. This could spell a GOP opportunity in 2020, a year when every vote will count. “White Democrats remain more likely than black or Hispanic Democrats to describe themselves as liberal. In 2019, the majority (55%) of white Democratic and Democratic-leaning registered voters identified themselves as liberal, an increase of 27 percentage points since 2000. Among white Democrats, 19% called themselves very liberal in 2019, compared with 6% in 2000,” says the pollster, which released the findings Friday.
