How concerned are you with the black vote this cycle?

Reports of millions of newly registered black voters in Ga, Pa, Michigan, Florida, North Carolina and Ohio have come up. If the black voters turn out like in 2008 and 2012 how concerned are you with the ability of this block to influence the outcome in those swing states?

The raw numbers are up but the key metric is % of the electorate.

Here in Georgia even though black turnout is up in raw numbers, it's actually a little down as % of the electorate because everybody else is up even more.

I don't believe there are millions of newly registered Black voters in those states. The Black population is declining in PA, Michigan, and Ohio. Impossible. And, Trump is going to get unprecedented amounts of Black votes in GA, FL and NC. Trump got this.

I hit a Shell station here in Houston a few mornings a week 3-5 blacks guys from 35-60 talking and bullshitting. Don’t know if they are pro Trump but they definitely think Biden is full of shite. They were slamming him after the last debate.

You sure about that? Abrams led a campaign here in Georgia that registered 800k new voters. I'd assume that those 800k won't be going to Trump. I know a few that have openly pledge their support of Trump, which is crazy because those individuals are small business owners that are supported by black democrats. One in particular has all but ruined his law practice

Why would anyone be concerned about people voting?

Because the people voting may not vote for the candidate that someone else supports

Sounds like you need to vote for higher taxes and to support China and Russia. Not sure what to tell you. The entire Biden family will thank you for their next $30M in overseas money received.

Meh, as long as people are educated voters, I couldn't care less. The color of their skin doesn't even enter into my mind.

It's so pathetic that black democrats know about Biden's racist past remarks, crime bill association, Kamala's prosecution of blacks, Kamala not actually being black.... yet they still line up to vote (D) because they think Republicans want to enslave them.

So no issue with Biden's endless string of racist comments, the 1994 crime bill he wrote, or his fear of his kids growing up in a racial jungle?

"Biden was responsible for a provision in the 1986 crack law which came to be viewed as one of the most racially slanted sentencing policies on record: a rule that treated crack cocaine as significantly worse than powder cocaine and ended up disproportionately punishing African Americans and sending them to prison but sparing white Americans who typically used cocaine."

Trump's "recent police-reform executive order, the First Step Act, released thousands of people from jail (90 percent of whom were black). He has promoted “opportunity zones” that incentivized private investment into marginalized communities, and also increased federal funding to historically black colleges and universities by 17 percent — a total exceeding $100 million, more than any president in history. Meanwhile, the Obama administration infamously removed a two-year Bush-administration program that annually funded $85 million directly to these prized institutions."

Vote against your own interests because you don't like the guy. But you can vote Democrat again in 2024 because they will be promising the same shite then that they are promising now because they will never actually fulfill those promises.

Don't be surprised if Trump gets at least 15% to 20% of the Black vote in Georgia. If so, he will win Georgia.
