What groups were attracted to the populists?

Populists attracted a diverse coalition of groups, including farmers facing economic hardship, labor unions advocating for workers' rights, and disenfranchised urban voters seeking political reform. Additionally, disillusioned middle-class individuals and progressive reformers were drawn to populist movements due to their anti-establishment rhetoric and promises to address inequality and corruption. These groups united around shared grievances against elites and a desire for greater political and economic power.
