"Solar companies are forming coalitions to advocate for the renewable energy source, commissioning a survey that concluded a whopping 75 percent of Trump voters were behind efforts to expand the country's investments in solar energy."
The renewable energy sector has suffered under Trump's presidency, with over $600 billion cut from tax credits for clean energy. The U.S. is paying nearly $1 billion to halt a wind farm project.

Significant funding is being directed towards campaigns against these candidates, reflecting a strong push from the clean energy sector. A survey indicates that 75% of Trump voters support increased investments in solar energy.
