Kamala Harris Gains Support Among Black Voters

Vice President Kamala Harris's candidacy is eliciting mixed reactions among various voter demographics as the 2024 election approaches. While a Pew Research Center survey indicates that 77% of Black voters support Harris, a Daily Caller columnist argues that many Black voters feel disconnected from her due to perceived economic failures and a lack of tangible policy proposals. Meanwhile, Harris holds a narrow 9-point lead over Trump among Hispanic Americans, who remain skeptical of her despite preferring her on several issues. Voter registration data from Louisiana shows that women are registering in greater numbers, potentially influenced by Harris's candidacy, although experts caution that Louisiana is still a predominantly Republican state. In a notable shift, a former two-time Trump voter now plans to support Harris, citing disappointment with Trump's policies and behavior. Overall, Harris's support appears strong among Black voters, particularly younger and college-educated individuals, suggesting significant engagement ahead of the election.
