- A report released Tuesday by the Pew Research Center has segmented U.S. voters into nine political tribes
- Four of the groups lean left, four lean right, and then there are the ‘stressed sideliners,’ who have a minimal interest in politics
- Pew surveyed 10,221 adults this July, but has been conducting interviews with respondents since January 2020
- While partisan polarization remained high, the research also showed that there are divisions within the Democrats and the Republicans
U.S. voters are segmented into nine political tribes – four that lean left, four that lean right, and the ‘stressed sideliners’ who have a minimal interest in politics – according to a report released Tuesday by the Pew Research Center.
Pew surveyed 10,221 adults this July, but has been conducting interviews with respondents since January 2020.
While partisan polarization remained high, the research also showed that there are divisions within both the Democrats and the Republicans – as members’ views vary on issues including racial justice, abortion, taxes and the future role of former President Donald Trump.
