Where is the party’s base and where are its general election voters on key issues such as the economy, the pandemic, the war in Europe, and abortion rights? Has the GOP managed to diversify itself in the last decade, and if not, what does that portend for its future? And perhaps most important, what will the outcome of the battles within the party mean for our political system as a whole?
