According to a Wall Street Journal surveys of seven swing state, President Joe Biden is losing dark men’s help at an alarming rate.
The 2024 vote poll released next week surveyed electors in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, all state frequently viewed as” toss- up” heading into November. According to a report released on Thursday by The Wall Street Journal, one of the most important findings in the poll revealed that Biden’s support among black people in the swing state is 30 points below the national benefits for the 2020 election.
In the poll, 57 % of black men supported Biden, while 30 % said they backed former President Trump. This is a major shift from 2020 when 87 % of black people voted for Biden, and just 12 % voted for Trump, according to the VoteCast regional surveys.
According to the WSJ surveys, Biden’s assistance among black people remained great even though it was significantly lower than it had been just four years ago. In 2020, 93 % of black women across the country voted for Biden, but in the poll, Biden’s support among the demographic in the battleground states sits at 77 %, while Trump’s numbers among black women were higher, from the 6 % he received nationally in 2020 to 11 % in the swing states poll.
The obvious shift in dark support from Biden requires Democrats to rethink their 2020 method of reaching out to dark voters, according to Adrianne Shropshire, head of the Democrat political action committee BlackPAC.
” In this particular election, the persuasion is n’t just to vote or not to vote”, said Shropshire. ” The reasoning is really to get people to come to Biden and stay away from Trump and from third parties.”
In addition, according to the WSJ poll, black women are more likely to discover third-party options or stay home immediately, compared to black men, who are less likely than dark men to abandon their support for Biden in favor of Trump.
Commenting on the WSJ surveys results, a spokeswoman for the Trump campaign told WSJ,” Our partnership message to black and Hispanic communities this election is simple: If you want solid borders, healthy neighborhoods, rising wages, quality jobs, school choice and the return of the strongest economy in over 60 years, next voting for Donald J. Trump”.

According to Michael Bocian, a Democrat poll who conducted the WSJ poll, black voters typically appear warm in the November election cycle before turning around and voting violet in November.
” That said, Biden is farther away than where we have seen Democrats in the past”, Bocian remarked.
Biden received criticism during the 2020 campaign for saying that dark citizens “ain’t dark-colored” if they were considering backing Trump. The Democratic candidate later apologized for his comment, saying,” I should n’t have been such a wise guy”.
