    A YouGov poll backed by the Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU) Policy Project and released on Wednesday showed that among the 19 million people who voted for President Joe Biden in 2020 but did not vote in 2024, nearly a third named Israel’s U.S.-backed war on Gaza as a top reason for staying home.

      If that is true, then it sounds like the Dems should start catering to the left, instead of telling them to sit down and shut up.

      Additionally, that poll says “…a top reason…”, not the only reason. Look at the other issues listed in the poll:

      • The economy
      • Medicare and Social Security
      • Immigration and border security
      • Healthcare
      • Abortion policy

      All things that the Democrats keep campaigning on, but doing practially nothing about.
