Democrats are making a deliberate effort to win over voters aligned with the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement ahead of the midterms, according to a STAT report. Party leaders have been meeting with MAHA activists, consulting with political advisers, and introducing food and environmental policy agendas aimed at this constituency.
The Democratic version of the MAHA agenda differs from the one led by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Candidates are emphasizing food and toxins while avoiding vaccine injuries, a signature Kennedy issue that pollsters reportedly consider relatively fringe.
The report, by STAT's Daniel Payne, notes that another health issue looms larger in the campaign, though the provided text does not specify which.
