Nine political tribes emerge from Pew study—where do you fit?
TL;DR Summary
A Pew Research Center survey of over 10,000 Americans identifies nine ideological groups, revealing deep internal divides within both major parties ahead of the 2026 midterms and 2028 elections. The groups range from ardent partisans on the extremes to a Tuned-Out Middle whose votes may decide contests, with Trump’s approval varying by group. The findings underscore how internal party factions and moderates shape the path to coalitions needed to win elections.
