Summary:
Democrats are becoming increasingly concerned about a possible drop in Black voter turnout for the 2024 presidential election, according to party insiders. The worries arise from a 10% decrease in Black voter turnout in the 2022 midterms compared to 2018, a more substantial decline than any other racial or ethnic group, as per a Washington Post analysis. The decline was particularly significant among younger and male Black voters in crucial states like Georgia, where Democrats aim to mobilize Black voter support for President Biden in 2024.
The Democratic party has acknowledged the need to bolster their outreach efforts to this demographic. W. Mondale Robinson, founder of the Black Male Voter Project, highlighted the need for Democrats to refocus their attention on Black male voters, who have shown lower levels of engagement. In response, Biden’s team has pledged to communicate more effectively about the benefits that the Black community has reaped under Biden’s administration, according to Cedric L. Richmond, a senior advisor at the Democratic National Committee.
However, Black voter advocates have identified deep-seated issues affecting Black voter turnout. Many Black men reportedly feel detached from the political process and uninspired by both parties’ policies. Terrance Woodbury, CEO of HIT Strategies, a polling firm, suggests that the Democratic party’s focus on countering Trump and Republican extremism doesn’t motivate younger Black men as much as arguments focused on policy benefits. Concerns are growing within the party that if they fail to address these issues, disenchanted Black voters might either abstain or, potentially, be swayed by Republican messaging on certain key issues.
As a third party candidate, which is useful presuming one wants to split the left.
Split the vote is liberal myth. If there were no 3rd party candidates we still wouldn’t vote for your shitty corporate owned neo liberal warhawks.
Voting for a right wing party like the DNC does not position you on the left
Voting for a right wing party like the DNC does not position you on the left
It does when the other choice is an actual Nazi.
You do realize that we can disagree on the details and still be on the same side, yes?
How many votes did Gore lose by in Florida? How many votes did Ralph Nader get in Florida?
IDK, maybe you should ask the 15% of democrats that voted for Bush instead of Gore, and not the 3% that voted Nader. Maybe you should ask Gore why he lost his own home state despite Clinton winning it by a huge margin 4 years earlier which would have won him the WH, maybe you should ask the DNC why they rolled over in Florida and didn’t challenge the results.
Democrats are not entitled to our votes, and do nothing to earn them. Even on the chance there is no 3rd party candidate running we wouldn’t vote for your shitty candidates. Liberals are the reason government is so fucked up, they never hold their elected officials accountable. They could commit mass murder and still get elected.
