Table 2. Predicting change toward Democratic vote choice based on changes in opinion on race, immigration, and China, 2016–2020 (fixed effects logit models).

Note: Entries are odds ratios corresponding to fixed effects logit analyses. Given that fixed effects logit automatically drops respondents who did not change preferences, a linear fixed effects analysis is also shown in table S1. The dependent variable equals to 1 for votes supporting the Democratic candidate and 0 otherwise.
