Many Democrats are still down on the Democrats, a new AP-NORC poll finds
The AP-NORC poll finds 70% of Democrats still view their party positively despite frustration over leadership and response to Trump’s 2024 win.
- The AP-NORC poll conducted Feb. 5-8 found 70% of rank-and-file Democrats view the party positively, reflecting ongoing Democratic morale issues.
- After the 2024 election, AP-NORC found Democrats' favorability fell from 85% in September 2024 to 67% in October 2025, with public sentiment declining since around 2010.
- Among frustrated Democrats, about four in ten said the party isn’t fighting hard enough against Trump, while roughly one-quarter of Americans view both parties negatively, especially independents and Americans under 45.
- Electoral history suggests the party not in the White House often gains seats, but lackluster favorability may influence turnout as 35% of U.S. adults trust Democrats on health care versus 23% for Republicans.
- The poll also shows the problem is broad across demographics, while a California billionaire tax proposal creates division and independents could offer Democrats an opening this year.
