Show Notes

Latter-day Saints voters have shifted left, narrowing the GOP edge from 51 points in 2007-2009 to 33 points in 2023-2025. This shift is primarily due to a Trump effect, as his support has increased but remains below that of Romney or Bush. Younger members, more diverse and less religious, are leading the charge, but the group still leans Republican, with 40% under 35 identifying as such. The future of LDS politics depends on Republicans ability to distance themselves from MAGA vibes or find a new face.
