In order to have a fighting chance in the midterms — as well as a shot at holding onto the presidency in 2024 — Democrats need to embark on a broader course correction back to the center. The party needs to show voters that they are focused on solving problems and addressing quality-of-life issues and that they reject the progressive-left’s embrace of big government spending and identity politics.
Indeed, a majority of voters (54 percent) — including 56 percent of Independents — explicitly say that they want President Biden and Democrats to move closer to the center and embrace more moderate policies, versus embracing more liberal policies (18 percent) or staying where they are politically (13 percent).
Most voters (61 percent) also agree that President Biden and Democrats are “out of touch with hardworking Americans,” and “have been so focused on catering to the far-left wing of the party that they’re ignoring Americans’ day to day concerns” such as “rising prices” and “combating violent crime.”
