## Reading

In a Verasight survey of 1,000 U.S. adults conducted Feb. 28 to March 6, 2025, Americans see their political group as only partly bound up with the rest of who they are. The largest single share (36%) describe the overlap between their politics and traits like race, religion, or sexuality as moderate.

From there the balance tilts toward more overlap than less: answers land on the high-overlap side (41%) more than the low-overlap side (22%), and 7% say their political and personal identities coincide completely.
