Pollster: More Voters Identified as Republican in 2024 Election
Newsmax ^ | 12/31/2024 | Sandy Fitzgerald

The 2024 election featured far more Republicans than Democrats in the electorate, reversing a longtime trend in party identification dating back to the New Deal in the 1930s.

Exit polls showed Republicans outnumbering Democrats by 5 points in the AP VoteCast Survey and 4 points in network exit polls, writes Republican Party pollster and political strategist Patrick Ruffini on his Substack webpage, The Intersection, on Tuesday.

Until the current election, Republicans only came out even with Democrats during the 1994 "Republican Revolution" and the period just after the 9/11 attacks.

Before late President Ronald Reagan revamped the GOP's image during the 1980s, Democrats had held the advantage in their party's identification, which sometimes reached a 2-1 margin during the 1960s and 1970s, Ruffini notes.

I believe that the leftists reached too far away from the core of what makes up America. People rejected DEI and transgenderism for children. Millions of illegal aliens are being treated like royalty in five star hotels while citizens and veterans in need of housing, food , and medical care slept in alleys and boxes on the street. They tired of Congress who could not control their spending.

and yet they still almost cheated a win if you look at the seats and what happened when no one was paying attention in the house and senate.

Shows how much corruption and election fraud the uni party really does.

I do and I still believe that it might be necessary. Before Trump the Republican Party had betrayed us since 1988. If the Republican establishment keeps fighting MAGA then it will be time to form another party and let it go the way of the Tories and the Whigs.

It’s much easier to infiltrate a party and change it from within. The socialists/communists did it to the DemocRat Party.

Anyone here believe the pollsters will change their overweighting bias factors for DemocRATs?

As soon as Trump takes office the left is going to start in with the Hitler comparisons. Well here is one way you can fight back: Tell them there is only one Adolf Hitler and he currently lives in Beaverton Oregon.

So a near even party ID in 1994 led to a blow out win for the GOP, whereas now it takes a +5 GOP ID advantage just to barely eke out a win.

This really makes you appreciate what masters of ballot fraud the demonrats have become.

For this we need a "pollster"?

The popular vote already told that story.
