while the eisenhower coalition has generally not worked well for republicans, one might want to take note that the single largest demographic in the 2026 midterms was atheist voters, and that a lot of them are going to be more than a little annoyed by the direction the democrats are turning in.

atheists - 27%

evangelicals - 17%

further, atheists are a faster growing population than evangelicals.

it is relatively predictable that whoever controls the atheist vote is going to be in a strong position in 2028.
