WASHINGTON — Donald Trump reshaped the US electorate once again in 2024, piling up support among Hispanic voters, young people, and Americans without college degrees — and winning more votes in nearly all of the country as he reclaimed the presidency.

Following the Republican's populist campaign, in which he promised to shield workers from global economic competition and offered a wide range of tax-cut proposals, Trump's increasing strength among working-class voters and non-white Americans helped grow his share of the vote almost everywhere.

The starkest increase may have been the 14-percentage-point swing in Trump's share of Hispanic voters, according to an exit poll conducted by Edison Research. Some 46 per cent of self-identified Hispanic voters picked Trump, up from 32 per cent in the 2020 election when Trump lost to Democrat Joe Biden.
