Overview
- POLITICO/Public First’s mid-November survey reports that 55% of Trump’s 2024 voters identify as MAGA while roughly 38% do not, based on an online poll of 2,098 adults conducted Nov. 14–17 with a ±2 point margin of error.
- Non‑MAGA Trump voters are more likely to fault the president for the economy, say he wields too much power, and express pessimism about the future compared with MAGA voters.
- The trust gap is stark on policy: 85% of MAGA voters trust Republicans more to lower health costs versus 55% among non‑MAGA Trump voters, and GOP trust on the economy stands at 88% among MAGA voters versus 63% among non‑MAGA.
- MAGA voters report greater financial optimism, with 73% expecting their personal finances to improve over five years compared with 57% among non‑MAGA Trump voters, and they are more likely to say their finances have improved in the past five years.
- Concurrent national polling highlights broader vulnerability, with Economist/YouGov finding 38% approval and -19 net approval and Gallup showing 36% approval and 60% disapproval, as off‑year results and polling point to Latino and young male voters drifting back to Democrats.
