The trend toward the Republican Party among white voters without a college degree has continued, and Democrats have lost ground among Hispanic voters, too.
I can post some sources but this is a bit misleading. There has been a significant drop in registered Democrats and Republicans over the last decade. There are more Independant registered voters than before. As a matter of fact the percentages flipped from being just under 30% as registered Independant to about 45% or so.
The “leaning” Democrat and Republican have stayed about the same and fairly even split but they aren’t “shifting to the Republican party”.
Since it looks exactly like the chart in the sources I’ve cited in the past here in the Fed, I’m sure the article (I didn’t bother looking at an archive to bypass the paywall) cites the same source that will show anyone that looks the truth.
I also wonder if they take into account strategic Voters I know this last few elections i am registered republican but I’m far left of democrats and vote for the weakest republican in the primary and vote dem in the general.
