Former President Trump’s gains with Black voters are causing a stir in the political world, with CNN data reporter Harry Enten sounding the alarm for President Biden’s re-election campaign. Enten appeared on “CNN News Central” to discuss the significant shift in Black voter support, with Trump now having double the support he did in 2020.
Describing the situation as a “huge alarm,” Enten emphasized the importance of this shift and its potential impact on the upcoming presidential election. According to polling averages, Trump has seen a substantial increase in support among Black voters, from 10% to 21%, while Biden has experienced a decline from 81% to 70%.
Enten pointed out that if these trends continue, Trump could achieve the best performance for a Republican presidential candidate among Black voters in 64 years. Most of Trump’s gains have come from Black voters under the age of 49, with Biden maintaining stronger support among older Black voters.
The data guru highlighted key battleground states where this shift in Black voter support could make a difference, including Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Anchor Boris Sanchez noted that these numbers present a significant opportunity for Republicans and could spell trouble for Biden’s campaign.
Overall, Enten warned that these numbers could be “deadly” for Biden’s re-election prospects, emphasizing the need for the Democratic Party to address this shift in Black voter support. With the election looming, the impact of Trump’s gains with Black voters is a topic of concern and discussion among political analysts and voters alike.
