«A poll from The New York Times released over the weekend found Harris’ support among Black voters to be substantially smaller than estimates of the support the Democratic presidential candidates received in 2016 and 2020. She led Trump 78% to 15%, with only 70% of Black men saying they would vote for her and 20% backing Trump. That said, polls in 2020 and 2022 ended up understating Black support for Democratic candidates.

Indeed, some political experts and organizers believe the hand-wringing over the Black male vote is largely overblown. Black men have consistently turned out for the Democratic Party. A Washington Post-Ipsos poll last month found support for Harris is solid among Black men.

“Black men do not vote much differently than Black women. This is a talking point being pushed that is harmful, trying to lay blame at the feet of Black men,” former Ohio state Sen. Nina Turner (D) wrote on social media.

Still, the Harris-Walz campaign has been working to prevent defections to the Republican Party, having hosted multiple events in battleground states.»
