You don't know if I am affilIated with any party.Yours has far less now than ever before
But just for the heck of it, current Gallup Party Affiliation:
GOP, 29%.......Independents, 40%.......DEMS, 30%
Highest DEM affiliation has been going all the way back to 2004 was 40%, Feb 2008
Highest GOP affiliation for the same time frame was 33% repeated several times over the 16 year period
Highest affiliation achieved by either party for the past four years was 35% avowed as DEMs in Oct 2018.
As I stated earlier neither party has anything to be proud of in that regard during the 21st Century. The only growing component is Independents tallying as high as 45-46% for the period. You have to go all the way back into the 20th century to find big numbers for DEM affiliation. Then again "going back" is a big part of the Right's appeal. So if you want to make a case for 20th century party affiliation, be my guest. Why change up. The RIGHT has no actual arguments to make. So it just yanks it meat all day long.
