The number of people who describe themselves as Republican has slightly declined since the last presidential election.
The polling firm Gallup, which tracks party affiliation monthly, says that those identifying as Republicans has shrunk by two percentage points since 2020. In February 2020, 30 percent of those Gallup polled said they were Republicans, while 29 percent considered themselves Democrats.
As of February 2024, when the latest data is available, 28 percent say they are Republicans, while 30 percent say they are Democrats, showing Republican’s base declining. Newsweek contacted the Republican National Committee (RNC) by email to comment on this story.
Has it shriveled, or has it slightly declined? You can’t have both.

Is this a copypasta? Because it’s pretty good.
What, like a turtle?
I’m not even sure this qualifies as any kind of decline. Surely this is within the margin of error.
It’s evidence that progress really is marching forward one grave at a time.
It really doesn’t. I’m sure their error margins are larger than 1%. It could totally be the democratic party that has shrunk and the republican party has grown if the error is bad enough (which it almost certainly isn’t, but I’m trying to make a point). I’m not clicking that article though. I’m not going to justify that headline.
