June 18, 2024: Sixty-one percent (61%) of RMG-described politically active elites have introduced themselves to others using their preferred personal pronouns. A Scott Rasmussen national survey conducted by RMG Research found that 3% have not.
The survey also found that among all voters, just 10% have introduced themselves using preferred personal pronouns, while 88% have not.
Methodology
This survey of 1,500 elite voters was conducted online by Scott Rasmussen on March 6-12. Field work for the survey was conducted by RMG Research, Inc.
Elites were defined as having a postgraduate degree, having a household income of more than $150,000 annually, and living in a zip code with more than 10,000 people per square mile. Approximately 1% of the total U.S. population meets these criteria. The politically active elites are those elites who talk politics on a daily basis.
Note: Scott Rasmussen is the president of RMG Research, Inc. He hosts "The Scott Rasmussen Show" on Merit Street Media Sunday mornings at 10 Eastern.
