In the recent 2024 election, Donald Trump saw significant gains among minority voters.

Trump also clinched a higher percentage of Muslim voters compared to Jewish voters, who favored Kamala Harris with only 20 percent support for Trump. Additionally, Trump won a majority of voters who believed democracy was threatened. His coalition remained stable from 2020 to 2024, reflecting changes in the electorate, particularly among non-college-educated Whites. Trump received a record number of votes from Jewish, Black, Hispanic, and Native American communities. Trump won the Hispanix vote, while Kamala Harris won the LatinX vote. He achieved gains in 49 states plus D.C., marking the biggest party swing since 1992, and saw the best Republican showing in 20 years among 18-29 year-olds, 48 years among Black voters, and 52+ years among Hispanics. The voters who backed Trump were more diverse, younger, and more working-class than those in previous elections.
