Do the welcoming Democrats know what is popular?

The middle activists are at the heart of a new batch to control the direction of the Democratic Party that they want Democrats to build sites that follow public opinion. However, as is the case, there is little evidence that its favorite platform is very popular, according to researchers, as defenders of a more realistic party also failed to realize the influence that leaders can have on public opinion.

Last week, the middle Democrats met in Washington, DC, to attend an event that was described as the largest general gathering of the two mediums in the Democratic Party. This event was a celebration of Democrats (former Democrats) such as former Senator Joe Mancin, IW.V. , Which represented the maintenance wing at the center.

The co -founder of the billionaire billionaire University funded Pak, Liam Ker Football shirtBefore submitting an opening statement to the slides that oppress the group’s vision of the party to move forward as “dogs”, it indicates blue dogs; “Data”; And “Slotkin”, referring to the novice Senator from Michigan, Elisa Sluttin, who took the Senator Chuck Schumer, DN.Y, Shine.

However, the closest came to a statement of this event from Lauren Harperbob, the founder of the welcome party, the political organization behind the event, which described the group’s mission as as sure of the “democrats on the right side of public opinion.”

“The power in the numbers”, said in an interview with a salon that “it is very clear, if you are a student in public opinion, public opinion is very flexible and is also subject to the questions you ask and the way you try to measure it.” “These nuances are not compatible with the activity between these groups,” referring to those who are trying to put themselves on the “right side” of public opinion.

Practically, it seems that being on the right side of public opinion means adopting more conservative policies on issues that seem to be more popular and more popular, such as ON Migration Or sharing Sexual transfers People in sports. Economically, the group pushed towards “Al -Wafra agenda“Who focuses on the response of the regulations that supporters say they say things like building new housing.

However, the problem with the increasing moderate movement is that there is not much evidence that the main pole of its central platform – the regulations that retreated from them and say no to the call groups in the pursuit of the Al -Wafra agenda – is popular.

Josh Barrow, journalist and owner of a “very serious” blog Fedyak, touched on this in an interview with Representative Richie Torres, Dunn.

Torres replied, “I feel we need strong leadership, and we look, we have seen Yimby’s movement gaining momentum even in California and New York.” Yimby (yes in the backyard “) refers to the pro -development invitation to the NIMBY opposition (” not in the backyard “) that often limits development through the laws dividing restrictions. This was not the last time the case appeared in this event.

When asked about a follow -up question from the salon, Torres answered in an email saying, “A government that builds more housing at reasonable prices, more clean energy, and more infrastructure is not only a good government. It is a good policy.”

Later, in a committee that includes Derek Thompson, a co-author of “Al-Wafra”, and MP Jake Oshenicos, D-Mass, Marshall Koslov, the co-host of “The Realignment”, Kosloff faced the committee members with the committee members with Voting From the progress of the request, the gradual polling company, which tested whether the message of abundance or an economic message that resonated with the respondents better.

When descriptions are presented to both the Al -Wafra agenda, which focused on exfoliation of regulations, and an economic business schedule, which focused on dismantling the authority of companies, the poll found that Democrats and independents prefer the economic popular message while the Republicans preferred the message of abundance.

Auchincloss replied, saying that it is “a bad religions poll” and that the results are “What happens when you test a textbook of the economy against a romantic novel and tell people,” What do you like to read better? “

in reconnaissanceAl -Wafra’s agenda has been described as: “the big problem is” bottlenecks “that makes it difficult to produce housing, expand energy production, or build new roads and bridges.” The populist agenda has been described as: “The big problem is that the major companies have a lot of strength on our economy and government.”

The poll found that 32.6 % of Democrats, 68.8 % of Republicans and 40.6 % of the independents said that the abundance message would make them more likely to vote for a candidate. On the other hand, the popular message led 71.5 % of Democrats, 39.6 % of Republicans and 55.4 % of independents to say that they were more likely to vote for a candidate who provides this message. The survey did not test the partisan affiliation of the candidate who provides the letter.

However, the economic correspondence was not the only place where the two centers seemed to adopt an opinion of the minority. When Torres was cut off during his speech by the anti -war demonstrators, the organizers in this event began playing in the playing of Carly Simon, “You are absurd”, and the welcome party is linked to Alternative The demonstrators called “flexible festivals.”

While “popularity” mocked the feelings supporting the Palestinian, the Democrats have increased sympathy for the Palestinians, with a conversation Gallup survey Discover that 59 % of Democrats are now sympathetic to the Palestinians more, while only 21 % sympathizes with the Israelis. In the general population, more Americans sympathize with 46 % more with Israelis, compared to 33 % who sympathize more with the Palestinians, although sympathy has turned away from Israelis and towards Palestinians in recent years. However, with regard to concrete policy such as legal measures taken against Israel, this shift was more dramatic.

last reconnaissance From April, conducted by John Zogby Strategies, it was found that with regard to practical policy, 44 % of the respondents agreed to the results of the International Criminal Court that Israel’s war on Gaza is a genocide, compared to 28 % who disagreed with this statement.

They have also started moving the position of the minority regarding the labor movement, and they are defending the pushing of the unions at a stage when the Americans’ approval of the trade unions are close to their highest levels ever. 2024 Galleb wiped It was found that 70 % of Americans agree to unions while not only approaching 23 %.

At one time during this event, Baru asked: “Is there a way to obtain a democratic party in support of the abundance in New York without breaking the strong link between the Democratic Party in New York and the labor movement?” Thinking says that giving contracts to trade union companies, or asking the developers to do so, can increase employment costs for projects and perhaps develop development.

Torres indirectly responded, saying: “Everyone should be heard, but no one will get the power of veto.” Barrow has since continued to defend the “combat action unions” in Bassem abundance.
In addition to leaving the minority positions, the task of staying on the “right side of public opinion” is also missing that the way in which leaders can form a general view of the issue on the issue.

Maurice’s research alongside Verasight, a survey research company, found that the respondents who are taking information about the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland’s resident who has been wrongly deported, has led to a decrease in supporting the deportation of all uncomfortable immigrants.

The survey found that, without preparation, 44 % of the respondents supported a comprehensive deportation of uncomfortable immigrants while 38 % did not do it. Among the respondents who provided information about the Abrego Garcia case, only 39 % supported comprehensive deportation, while 43 % reported to opposition to deportation.

Morris also followed Trump’s classification on the issue of immigration, along with the amount of interest that the issue of Abyerigo Garcia was in the press. It was found that the Trump approval classification of immigration decreased in the link with the increase in the interest that was paid to the case.

Morris said of the central movement: “I seem to have more sales tactics than a commitment to track the average person already,” Morris said of the central movement. “They have a set of beliefs that, over the past 15 months, have been supported by the majority in certain ways. These majority polls have asked these questions. But this will not necessarily be true in the future, given the events, so they are now placed in the position in which they must confirm that these things are popular.” “They only have a commitment to these values ​​first and the commitment to the second public.”

Kerr, the co -founder of the PAC, when Salon was asked about what happens when public opinion turns into an issue, and whether Democrats should adopt a new site to reflect this shift, called “The Classical Political Theory Question.”

“The response of Burkan – the representative of” a debtor for you is not only his manufacture but his rule, and he betrays you if he sacrifices his opinion ” – he has some merit. But you also have to elect in the first place.” “The most prominent issues are not the issues that public opinion was changing to be further as the candidates were standing. The story of the past decade revolves around more candidates who exceed the opinion of the voters. The answer to this problem is the candidates with deep values ​​and confidence in representing these values ​​in an original manner for voters and how to vote in Congress.”
