A Washington Post-Ipsos poll conducted between August 23 and Tuesday revealed that 76% of black adults indicated they are likely to vote for Harris, with 82% of registered black voters expressing similar intentions. This marks an improvement compared to Biden&#8217;s performance as the presumptive Democratic nominee, where only 66% of black adults and 74% of registered voters said they would definitely or probably vote for him in an April survey. Although Harris has seen a steady increase in support from black voters since Biden\u2019s earlier figures, she remains below their combined total from four years ago when the Biden-Harris ticket garnered 91% backing from this demographic according to AP VoteCast.<\/p>\n<p>Former President Donald Trump experienced a slight decrease in his appeal among black voters since April; that survey indicated that 14% of both black adults and registered voters were inclined to vote for him, while recent data shows those numbers have dropped to 13% and 12%, respectively. Independent candidate Cornel West and Green Party candidate Jill Stein also saw notable declines among black voter support compared to April figures.<\/p>\n<p>Despite making up only about 11% of the electorate during the last election cycle, strong backing from black voters has historically been crucial for Democrats&#8217; electoral success. Recent polls suggest Trump may be gaining ground with both black and Latino voters, which could pose challenges for Democratic candidates on Election Day. Overall, the race between Harris and Trump remains competitive nationally as well as in key swing states ahead of their first presidential debate on Tuesday; a New York Times-Siena College poll released Sunday showed Trump leading Harris by one percentage point at 48%-47%<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2638,"featured_media":2338731,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/kamala-harris-2024-election-black-voters.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[32174,4021,3723],"class_list":["post-2338730","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-black-voters","tag-harris","tag-support"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/kamala-harris-2024-election-black-voters.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2338730","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2638"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2338730"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2338730\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2338731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2338730"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2338730"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2338730"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
