Increase in Trump votes among blacks
Donald Trump is on the verge of getting the highest number of black votes among the candidates of the Republican Party of this country. |
According to the report of the Fars News Agency International Group, according to the surveys carried out in American national polls by Bloomberg, probably “Donald Trump”, the former president of the United States, more than any Republican candidate in history. The upcoming presidential election will win the votes of black people.
According to “Newsweek”, the former president and the leading candidate of the Republican Party is currently in the polls. It is estimated that it has about 14 to 30 percent of the black votes on the eve of the election year. A percentage that is much higher than the 8% of the black vote that voted for Trump in the 2020 US presidential election. People of Color in America” estimated that in 1960, about 5 million African Americans participated in the presidential elections. When Richard Nixon won 32% of the black vote. According to an analysis of census data, since then, the black population has increased from about 10.83 percent, or 19,418,190 people, to 13.6 percent of the total population, equivalent to 46,936,733 people.
Studies show that the participation rate of blacks in the United States has increased from 58.5% in 1964 to 58.7% in 2020 according to the presidential election report. and this means that if Trump wins more than 13% of the votes of this segment, he will win the highest proportion of black votes since Nixon in 1960.
Meanwhile, Biden, the Democratic President of the United States in 2020, received about 92% of the black vote. While this figure was only 8% for Trump according to Pew Research Center statistics. The black vote helped Biden win in 2020 in very important US states such as Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. For example, 88 percent of the black vote in the state of Georgia went to Biden that year.
However, according to polls conducted in 2023, The current president of the United States is losing the support of black voters in this country, and his approval rating among voters in the same 7 key and very important states of the United States has decreased by 7 percent to 61 percent from October to December 2023.
This is despite the fact that Trump’s popularity has remained constant at around 25 percent during this period. So that now his position in the swing states (states in which none of the two main American parties have strong support and their votes are related to the activities of the candidates’ election campaigns) is at the top of America due to this support from the blacks. /p>
