Horn identified right-leaning independents and suburban women as weak points for Trump. She pointed to data from the New Hampshire Secretary of State’s office that shows 20,284 people have left the Republican Party since Trump won the presidency, which is roughly 7,000 more than the 13,556 voters Democrats lost.

“The president has not just disenfranchised good Republicans who feel passionately about principle and integrity and character, he has conducted himself in office in such a corrupt manner, people who left the party in 2016 have been given no reason to return to the Republican Party,” she said.

There are now 3,807‬ more undeclared voters than there were on Nov. 8, 2016. The rise in undeclared, or independent voters, “should be concerning” to Republicans, said DeMers, because they are losing registrations at a much quicker pace than Democrats.

On Election Day in 2016, the GOP had 20,000 more registered voters than Democrats. At last count, on Dec. 31, 2019, the gap was 13,272‬.
