在2024年初选中,选民将意识形态置于比可选性更优先的地位,重塑了政党的竞选。 Voters prioritize ideology over electability in 2024 primaries, reshaping party races.

新的NBC News民调显示, 两大政党的初等选民都把意识形态调整置于可选性之上, 70%的共和党人和56%的民主党人偏向与自己观点相符的候选人。 A new NBC News poll shows that primary voters in both parties are prioritizing ideological alignment over electability, with 70% of Republicans and 56% of Democrats favoring candidates whose views match their own. 这一转变反映了对政党领导层的日益不满,特别是在民主党中,他们怀疑可选性要求被用来提升某些候选人而不是其他候选人。 This shift reflects growing frustration with party leadership, especially among Democrats, who suspect electability claims are used to promote certain candidates over others. 有些选民强调,为了维护民主,必须打败共和党人,而另一些选民则强调要坚持原则。 While some voters stress the need to defeat Republicans to preserve democracy, others emphasize staying true to principles. 这一趋势正在改变初选,包括得克萨斯州参议院竞赛等竞争性竞赛中的初选,因为选民的价值观与实际胜选机会是平衡的。 The trend is reshaping primaries, including in competitive races like Texas’s Senate contest, as voters balance values with practical chances of winning.
