"In addition to distilling MAHA supporters’ priorities, the poll upends popular misconceptions about who Kennedy’s supporters are. In contrast to the stereotype of a vaccine-skeptical MAHA mom touting her wellness routine on social media, men were more likely than women to self-identify as MAHA supporters.
