The country's demographics are shifting in such a way that the Democratic base is growing, but that's not necessarily good news for the party's chances of seizing back the White House next year.

White people are making up a smaller and smaller share of the electorate and, as they tend to vote Republican, that would seem like cause for celebration for Democrats. But Gary Langer, a public opinion researcher and founder of Langer Research Associates, wrote in his paper "Blue Waves and White Bubbles" that Democrats are becoming so geographically clustered that they will still face a challenge beating President Donald Trump in the Electoral College.

In 2000, white people had dipped down to 82%, continually decreasing until 2018 when only 72% of the electorate was made up of white people, Langer said.Read MoreThe 2018 midterm elections saw more than half of US citizens vote, up 12 percentage points from the last midterm election, to a historic 53% turnout, according to the US Census Bureau's Current Population Survey. All that data shows groups that actively dislike and plan to vote against Trump are growing as a share of the electorate.

You mean more illegals

Populate the ‘red states’ with ilegal immigrants, give them driver’s licenses, free housing, education & healthcare, and they will vote Democrat. Isn’t that the plan?

The Democrat party should honestly disband. Way too much corruption and instability

Dems are fracturing internally as a party; become more subsets within the party itself similar to realDonaldTrump 's GOP party. It will come down to what do you have to lose. The MAD KING or whoever. Like the choice of HillaryClinton or Trump, or voters can stay home again.

no it is not. the american people know demoncraps are the enemy of the people

This is CNN

Ayyyy! Go Hawks! NHLBlackhawks

Go Hawks!

CNN 'forgets' to mention that this the motivation for the Dem's to promote with CNN the 'Open Borders' …. and no citizenship prove to be able to vote !

Congratulations! Dishonest Nancy Pelosi just delivered another 2 million votes for Trump from moderate Democrats who are turned off by this ridiculous overtime investigation of Trump!! Congrats! After an intense investigation you’ve PROVED... TRUMP IS AN HONEST LEADER!!

Why dems oppose the Wall

You mean the Democrat base CNN. There is nothing democratic about the Democrat party.

More proof that the electoral college is obsolete. However this article fails to recognize the record number of voters in 2018 and the fact that Donald Trump is at the top of the list of worst US Presidents ever and has a 39% approval rating.

Their base, unloads daily from ICE detention buses!

Keep crying whitey 😂✌ europegang

Lol are you counting illegals voting?

No hay candidato demócrata.

CNN will shutdown in 2020 when other media are announcing that Trump is the winner of the 2020 election

Too many tribes in the Democrat party. They are single issue voters oblivious or simply not concerned for the overall government viability.

REAL NEWS: CIVILIAN MARINES ARE NEEDED TO FIGHT AGAINST PHARMACEUTICAL LED WAR AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE..OPIOID EPIDEMIC!! MILLIONS ARE WEAKENED AND THOUSANDS HAVE DIED. JOIN BEFORE IT'S TO LATE... TO BE CONTINUED

Could you imagine how much more president Trump could have done for the United States if he didn't have to deal with the Dem's B.S

Yeah what is the point of growing if only about 50% of the electorate bother to vote?
