How Wales voted at the 2026 Senedd election

YouGov has published a really interesting piece which provides a breakdown of how Wales voted in the 2026 Senedd election.

Key takeaways:

- Plaid Cymru’s support was higher among younger voters, those with higher levels of both education and household income, while being highest of all among those who are fluent in Welsh

- Reform UK’s vote was strongest among older Welsh people, those with lower levels of education, and those who are or were employed in routine occupations, as well as being ten points higher among men than women

- Just 45% of Welsh voters who voted in 2021 and 2026 backed the same party in both elections
Labour retained just 34% of their 2021 vote, with 39% switching to Plaid Cymru, while 55% of 2021 Conservatives defected to Reform UK
