Summary

Support for Donald Trump among Black voters has dipped to 9% in recent NBC polling, down from 12% in 2020, as Election Day nears. Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee, currently leads with 87% of Black voter support.

In response to potential support shifts, Harris has introduced initiatives aimed at Black men, addressing business, mentorship, and health equity.

Despite minor gains with Black voters in past elections, Trump’s campaign remains focused on economic outcomes, with recent polls suggesting his support among Black voters may be lower than previously estimated.

    How did he ever have support from them in the first place? Did these black voters not make the connection between Trump and his supporters being Nazis and those being the same people who would be/still are in the KKK?

      In Australia I often think of conservatives as “temporarily embarrassed millionaires”.

      Our conservative party obviously favours wealthy people. My parents who are poor will always vote conservative because they “identify as” wealthy.

      Is it maybe similar, like some kind of class war?

      Lots of people vote against their own interest. Do you think black people incapable of doing so?
