Report Finds Working-Class Voters Embrace Economic Populism as Democrats Remain Divided

UNITED STATES, JUL 23 – A new report finds 11% of working-class Trump voters support progressive economic policies, suggesting Democrats can regain votes by focusing on economic populism and moderate social messaging.

  • Working-Class voters increasingly support economic populism, with 75% favoring a minimum wage increase, as highlighted by the report from the Center for Working-Class Politics and Jacobin magazine.
  • About 20% of working-class Trump voters support left-leaning economic policies, according to the Center for Working-Class Politics study.
  • The Democratic Party must adopt populist economic policies to regain lost support from working-class voters, according to the new report.
  • Growing report findings indicate that while the working class has shifted left on economic issues, they have become more alienated from educated voters, complicating Democratic strategies.
