disenfranchised = 'disenchanted (about something political)'

[Jonathan Lighter]

In a conversation with Tea Party reps this morning, one of the very highly
paid CNN anchors spoke twice about a poll that, according to her, showed
that forty percent of Americans were "disenfranchised" by the Tea Party.

Elsewhen, Christine O'Donnell recently explained that "I think the Tea Party
goes beyond Republicans. It’s Democrats, Independents and Republicans who
are disenfranchised with what they see coming out of Washington." :
