Preferences shifted from a nine-point Democratic advantage in the first quarter of the year to a five-point GOP edge by the end of the year, in the poll released this week.
On average, Americans’ political party preferences for the whole of 2021 looked similar to prior years, with slightly more U.S. adults identifying as Democrats or leaning Democratic — 46% —than identified as Republicans or leaned Republican — 43%, obscuring the dramatic shift in preferences throughout the year.
These results are based on aggregated data from all U.S. Gallup telephone surveys in 2021, which included interviews with more than 12,000 randomly sampled U.S. adults.
