There’s a deep disconnect between the Democratic Party and their voters, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll.

The poll revealed that Democrats want new party leadership, finding that 62% of self-identified Democrats believe that party leaders should be replaced with new people. Just 24% of respondents disagreed, with the rest saying they were unsure or chose not to answer. Only 30% of Republicans think their party leaders should be replaced.
