Liberals Outnumbered By Conservatives in 47 States
According to recent Gallup survey
People who identify as conservative outnumber those who call themselves liberal in 47 states, according to a new Gallup survey.
Nationally, conservatives had a 14.6 percentage point lead on liberals, though that was more than a full point smaller than last year's lead. The gap in 2013 was largest in Wyoming, where 40.5 percentage points separated those who identified as conservatives from those who identified as liberals. Only Hawaii, Massachusetts, Vermont and D.C. had more liberals than conservatives. The top 10 liberal states voted for Obama during the last two elections, while the top 10 conservative states chose the Republican nominee.
