Women voted for Donald Trump for the same reasons men did - racism and sexism
On Election Day 2016, 40 percent of American women voted for Donald Trump, despite his well-known history of sexual misconduct. In new research, Mark Setzler and Alixandra B. Yanus examine the attitudes of Trump's women voters to try to understand more about why so many voted for the now-President. They find that the attitudes of Trump's women voters were no different than men’s: even more than partisanship, both groups were influenced by sexism and racial resentment
Omnibus May 2024 U.S. Social Survey
This survey serves two purposes. First, it provides tracking data on several previous studies referenced below involving affective polarization in economic decision-making as well as satisfaction and support for democracy. Second, it introduces new experimental designs focusing on subjects related to LGBT+ rights, the Israel-Hamas war, and the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the context of U.S. elections. The omnibus survey includes items of interest from different co-authors, but rather than producing 3-4 topic-related pre-registrations, we include everything here in one omnibus pre-registration for transparency.
