“Kamala Harris has the smallest populist following of the major presidential candidates this election season, as we reported earlier this month based on a survey of populist attitudes in America fielded by our parent organization, the Institute for the Study of Modern Authoritarianism. Under the survey’s model of populism, 15% of Harris’[s] supporters could be classified as ‘populists,’ compared to 36% of Republican Donald Trump’s, and 29% of then-Independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s. But this does not mean that if Harris wins, our governing institutions will be secure from populist pressures.” (10/18/24)
