Seattle’s Political Divide by Identity | Seattle News
Description
Seattle’s political landscape is more nuanced than it seems: Democrats lead with 54% of nearly 3 million voters, but it’s not a landslide. While they dominate in King County, Pierce leans Republican. Age, race, and identity drive the splits — older voters lean conservative, Asian residents strongly favor Democrats, LGBTQ+ folks overwhelmingly support Democrats, and those with bachelor’s degrees or higher also lean Democratic. Meanwhile, trade school grads, military veterans, retirees, and parents skew Republican — while students? They’re skeptical of party labels altogether.
