Capitalism Support Dips as Mamdani's Profile Rises
Support for capitalism among U.S. voters has dropped below 50% for the first time in seven years, according to NBC News.
The decline comes as democratic socialist candidates like New York mayoral contender Zohran Mamdani gain national attention within the Democratic Party.
- 44% of registered voters view capitalism positively
- 28% view it negatively — a sharp decline from past majorities
- Two-thirds of Republicans still back capitalism
- 44% of independents and 25% of Democrats support capitalism
Among Democrats, views have flipped from slightly positive in 2024 to a 20-point net negative this year.
Younger and Hispanic voters have also grown more skeptical of capitalism, though views on socialism remain largely unchanged.
