Datenanalyse: Diese Wählergruppen haben die Republikaner klar verloren

In the United States, a "blue wave" is anticipated to sweep through the upcoming midterm elections, potentially placing the Democrats in power. Numerous polls preceding these interim elections suggested this trend might occur. On election night, it became evident that many American citizens had opted for the Democrats.

To succinctly capture the mood among many voters, one might say, "Life is too expensive", "The Iran war is too long", and "US President Donald Trump is too unpopular." Consequently, President Trump is set to face a significantly stronger opposition in the future.

Although not all votes have been counted, the post-election analysis from Handelsblatt reveals the specific voter groups that enabled the Democrats to gain a substantial edge in support. It becomes apparent where Republican support has plummeted significantly.
