Majority of Young Americans Now Support Democratic Socialism

A new poll by Heartland/Rasmussen shows that 51% of young Americans, among those who are likely to vote in the next presidential election, would like to see a democratic socialist elected to the Oval Office.

Furthermore, nearly 3 in 10 young Americans who voted for Trump in 2024 would prefer a democratic socialist win the presidency in 2028.

Interestingly, those earning less than $100,000 per year and those earning $200,000 or more expressed strong preference for a democratic socialist President, whereas those earning $100,000 to $200,000 were the only cohort opposing the scenario.
