Survey reveals political factions shaping the midterms

Season 2026 Episode 119 | 6m 48s

A new report from the Pew Research Center says American politics are not as simple as red versus blue. Pew surveyed more than 10,000 people and split the public into nine distinct groups along political and cultural values. Despite a polarized political environment, the report finds a minority of Americans are truly all-in for either party. Amna Nawaz discussed the findings with Jocelyn Kiley.
