Baby Formula Crisis Punctuates Steep Decline in Support for Biden and Dems with Suburban Moms

President Biden and his Democrats were already in trouble with suburban women due to inflation, high gas prices and an agenda these voters say does not align with their priorities. Then baby formula disappeared from store shelves.

Images of empty store shelves and stories of frantic parents searching for food to feed their infants, coupled with reports that the Biden administration is shipping pallets of scarce formula to the southern border to feed illegal immigrant children, now threaten to crater the party’s already weakened support among suburban women.

“Democrats have seen a double-digit decline among their strongest groups, especially women who are already struggling to stretch a dollar,” Republican strategist Ryan Girdusky told the Washington Times. “But now they’re trying to find food for their children.”

Women were a pivotal voting bloc for President Biden and Democrats in 2020. Exit polls show they backed Mr. Biden over Donald Trump 57% to 47%.
