The Western Journal: Democrats Hemorrhaging from Voter Roll Cleanup, Losing 3 Voters for Every 1 GOP Voter - Total Number Lost Is Brutal

Analysts predict that if Democrats do not address their disconnect with voters, particularly those in traditional working-class roles, they risk losing their coalition and influence in future elections.
