New Poll Reveals 70% of Americans Believe Democrats Are Out of Touch with the American People

By The Blog Source

Seven out of ten people now believe that the Democratic Party is "out of touch" with the actual issues of many Americans, according to a recent survey, which presents a frightening image for the party as it enters 2026. The results are based on a large survey conducted between November 2024 and June 2025 by the center-left research firm Welcome, which polled over half a million people. The findings show a growing gap between the Democratic Party's platform and the interests of moderates, minorities, and working-class voters—the very group that formerly drove its success.

70% of voters think Democrats are focused on specialized social issues like "protecting the rights of undocumented immigrants" and "protecting the rights of LGBTQ+ Americans," ignoring more pressing issues like public safety, border security, and inflation, according to the Deciding to Win report. Only 51% of respondents believed Democrats were out of touch in 2013, but that percentage has now risen by over 20 points. In comparison, opinions of the Republican Party have marginally improved during the same time frame, falling from 70% in 2013 to 65% now.

Democrats need to reorient themselves to be politically viable, the research advises frankly. The group added, "Democrats must concentrate less on climate change, democracy, abortion, and identity and cultural issues and more on the issues that voters believe we prioritize too little: the economy, the cost of living, health care, border security, and public safety." Additionally, it called on the party to "moderate our positions on issues where our agenda is unpopular," specifically those related to crime, immigration, and energy policy.

While 59% of voters disagree, only 39% believe the Democratic Party now has the correct priorities. According to the poll, Democrats are overwhelmingly in favor of focusing on securing the border (53%), lowering everyday costs (79%), making health care affordable (74%), creating jobs and economic growth (74%), lowering middle-class taxes (66%), lowering crime (56%), and protecting Social Security and Medicare (82%). Priorities including defending illegal immigrants (23%), raising social program funding (24%), and promoting LGBTQ+ rights (25%), on the other hand, came in last.

Democrats seem to have suffered greatly among minority and blue-collar voters as a result of that disparity. Since 2012, the party's popularity has decreased by 11 points among Black voters without a college degree, 15 points among Asian voters without a college degree, and 16 points among Latino voters without a college degree. Whites with college degrees were the only group to increase their support, by just 4%.

Welcome arrived at the conclusion that "winning does not happen by accident." "It's a decision—a decision to be methodical, strategic, and prepared to face challenging realities about the electorate."

Those "difficult truths" might be reaching Democrats either too late or just in time.
