Following decades of declining job prospects, White men without a college education have seen employment opportunities rise, which has the potential to influence their ballot choices this election cycle. In 1989, White families accounted for 55% of all working-class families, but by 2016, their share had declined 13 percentage points. “In 2018 and 2019, you really saw the benefit trickling down to everyone who wanted a job,” Emmons added. On the flip side, White men without college degrees are expected to remain resolute in their support of the president. White men overall voted for Trump in 2016 in numbers consistent with their historical support of Republican candidates, but White men without college degrees came out for Trump in the highest rate in at least 36 years, as reported by The Washington Post.
