US Politics Didn't Shift as Rightward in 2024 Elections as You May Think
Briefly

In Kentucky, almost two-thirds of voters rejected Amendment 2, which would have allowed the state to spend tax dollars to fund private, charter and religious schools. The rejection illustrates a clear stance where progressive ideals can garner support even in traditionally conservative areas.
Longtime party strategists blamed 'woke era' politics for Democrats' losses, yet it's crucial to note that key figures like Kamala Harris did not endorse such policies, highlighting a disconnect between public perception and party strategy.
Despite national losses, the state and local situations tell a different story. Progressive measures are receiving unexpected support across the political spectrum, suggesting a potential shift in voter priorities.
