What did 2024 tell us about US voters?

Al Jazeera  

As year comes to an end, Trump’s resurgence reveals voting trends that could define US politics in the years ahead. In the final count, Trump failed to win the support of a majority of US voters, taking 49.9 percent to Harris’s 48.4. “The difference between what the macro indicators tell us and what people’s perception of the economy is, is really one of the big stories this year,” Victor said. “What we saw was that there were groups that were affected by this war, by the Biden administration’s failure to act in a decisive way to deal with the humanitarian crisis and the genocide that was unfolding.” “The net impact of that was a loss of votes among several component groups: Arabs, obviously, but also young people and Black and Asian voters,” he said. “This could be a ‘blip’ election trend toward Republicans for Black and Hispanic voters, who still mostly favoured Democrats,” Frey told Al Jazeera.
