A growing share of Americans are ditching the Democratic Party as it suffers one of its sharpest decline in voter affiliation in decades, a new NBC News analysis shows.
Between 2024 and 2025 alone, Democrats experienced one of their most severe year-over-year losses, dropping 1.3 percentage points in registered voter share, according to a recent NBC News analysis of data compiled by Ballotpedia across 33 states and Washington, D.C. The trend reflects mounting disillusionment among Democrats and the turmoil within the Democratic National Committee (DNC) following the party’s devastating loss to President Donald Trump in 2024.
Democrats’ registration numbers have dropped nearly every year since 2000, except during former President Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign, the analysis found. In 2000, Democrats represented 43.8% of registered voters, but today, that number has fallen to 37%.
