Older Voters Favor Republicans in Midterm Poll
Update: 2025-12-12
Description
Recent Democratic victories have fueled hope for taking back Congress in next years midterm elections, but a new Reuters and Ipsos poll suggests a significant challenge ahead, particularly with older voters. While Democrats have seen some wins, the poll indicates a greater advantage for Republicans with this demographic, who are also more likely to vote in non-presidential election years. The poll shows that forty-six percent of voters aged fifty and older plan to vote Republican, an eight-point lead over the thirty-eight percent who favor Democrats. This is a notable shift from past midterm cycles. Democrats may need to adjust their message to appeal more broadly to older voters, focusing on prosperity for all age groups, not just job creation and affordability.
