By Education
By Gender
By Income
By Race
Note: Options for race have varied significantly overtime, and the size of the ANES means that there are very small samples Asian and American Indian. Because of this they are grouped together into “Other, non-Hispanic” which also includes those who identify as multiple racial categories. I also drop any years where there are fewer than 50 individuals in the sample. This is far from ideal.
By Subjective Class
Subjective class is what an individual identifies as when asked. The question used by ANES is:
There’s been some talk these days about different social classes. Most people say they belong either to the middle class or the working class. Do you ever think of yourself as belonging in one of these classes? Which one?
In some years respondents were asked where they identified within “working” or “middle” but not consistently so that has been dropped from this analysis.
By Party
Note: This includes “leaners” in the party they lean towards. Individuals were first asked whether they think of themselves as a Republican, Democrat or Independent. Those who identify as Independent are then asked if they lean towards one party or the other.
By Union Status

The summary statistics are available here. The Group N

Note: These are all weighted statistics (using the VCF0009z
