A recent US survey shows a majority of Democratic voters now favor socialism over capitalism, reflecting a broader ideological shift within the party's base.

A recent public opinion survey in the United States shows that a majority of registered Democratic voters now view socialism more favorably than capitalism. The findings highlight an ongoing ideological shift toward left-leaning economic policies among the party's base.

The trend comes amid heightened national discussions regarding wealth inequality, social welfare expansion, and rising living costs. Political analysts suggest these shifting attitudes among voters could impact upcoming Democratic primary contests, shape legislative priorities, and influence future party platforms as leaders address the evolving preferences of their electorate.
