- This project responded to findings that many young men view Democrats as weak and Republicans as strong, contributing to males shifting toward the GOP in 2024.
- SAM research revealed that young men often feel invisible to Democrats and believe neither party truly supports them, with economic stress exacerbating their concerns about masculinity.

- Despite bipartisan criticism likening the project to burning $20 million, the results suggest Democrats face significant challenges in reversing young male voter losses and reshaping their appeal.

An initial round of research from SAM—first reported by Politico—showed that many young men think that “neither party has our back,” as one black man from Georgia said in a focus group. SAM is a n…
