Democrats in Disarray: Record-Low Favorability Amid Infighting and Leadership Void
The Democratic Party is facing unprecedented turmoil, as recent polls reveal a historic decline in favorability ratings, coupled with internal conflicts and a glaring absence of clear leadership.
Historic Low in Favorability Ratings
A CNN poll conducted by SSRS from March 6-9 indicates that the Democratic Party’s favorability among Americans has plummeted to 29%, the lowest since CNN began such polling in 1992. This marks a significant drop of 20 percentage points since January 2021.
This decline is partly attributed to dissatisfaction within the party itself. Currently, only 63% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents view their party favorably, a decrease from 81% at the onset of President Joe Biden’s administration. Both liberals and moderates have reported an 18-point drop in favorability since 2021.
Internal Strife and Leadership Challenges
The party’s internal discord is further highlighted by debates over strategy in dealing with the Republican agenda. A majority of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents (57%) believe the party should focus on opposing Republican initiatives rather than seeking bipartisan cooperation. This is a notable shift from September 2017, when 74% favored working with Republicans to advance Democratic priorities.
The lack of a unifying leader exacerbates these challenges. When asked to identify a leader who best represents the party’s core values, responses were fragmented:
- 10% named New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
- 9% cited former Vice President Kamala Harris.
- 8% preferred Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.
- 6% mentioned House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.
Notably, over 30% of respondents did not specify any leader, underscoring the party’s leadership vacuum.

Comparative Party Favorability
In contrast, the Republican Party currently holds a favorability rating of 36%. Among Republicans and Republican-leaning individuals, 79% view their party favorably. Political independents, however, express unfavorable views toward both parties, with only 19% viewing Democrats and 20% viewing Republicans favorably.
Perceptions of Extremism
Approximately half of the public perceives both major parties as holding views and policies that are too extreme. This perception marks a change from 2022, when 56% considered the Democratic Party’s positions to be mainstream. Among political independents, 57% view the Republican Party as too extreme, while 48% feel the same about the Democratic Party. Additionally, 16% of Democrats and 9% of Republicans believe their own parties are too extreme.
These findings highlight significant challenges for the Democratic Party as it navigates internal divisions, leadership uncertainties, and declining public support.
