Biden Aides See Warning Signs in Black, Latino Turnout So Far
- Thread starter jon bones
- Start date
I don't think it's surprising. If Trump loses, this trend will be even far worst for Democrats in 2024.
sub heading- seniors and burbs will save the day.
it's nice that we don't have to depend on any one demographic to win this thing.
I don't what or who these "Biden aides" are, but this literally goes against what we've been hearing about in GA and SC
Yea we won't know the full picture until election day, but they better be busting their ass off this weekend to get everyone to vote.
Let's not forget that these Biden aides are also Democrats prone to bedwetting; many of whom probably have actual PTSD from working on the Hillary campaign
No one (and I mean no one) really knows who is voting early. Exit polls are notoriously inaccurate and it takes weeks after an election to match exit polling up with final results and larger scientific surveys to figure out who showed up and who did not.
The campaign needs to keep busting ass, but I am going to side-eye anyone who claims to "know" who voted by mail other than their party registration.

I really wouldn't listen to just random aides after we had that politico thread that was made and it turned out it was made by a Trafalgar group
Yeah in the polls thread there was a poll showing Trump getting +1 Black vote compared to 2016 and +5 Hispanic vote.
Biden is still way way ahead but these small changes could matter in swing states with close margins and high minority populations, like Florida.

Fair enough, what's VBM though? People come up with acronyms expecting we all should know them.
Decades of indifference towards POC leads to that.
I think Biden is >>>> Trump obviously, but my parents for example are very hesitant of being excited for a Biden presidency as he was VP of the disappointing (in their eyes) Obama presidency. In the end they voted (for Biden, obviously) but my siblings and I had to bring them with us to the polling station.
Never underestimate machista culture and how important being a "tough" guy is.
Weren't they really behind Bernie?
'He's working for it': why Latinos are rallying behind Sanders
‘Tio Bernie’ has a commanding lead among Latinos in the key states of California and Texas. Their support could be decisive

You expect white people to do it? We all know how that has worked out over the last few hundred years.
White people just block Grandpa's Q posts and never think to talk to them about it.
No. Biden needs enough to counter the white male vote,however. He should win every other demo
They're talking about vote by mail. I can see it though. I originally was going to vote by mail but am admittedly too paranoid with some of the mail nonsense they've been pulling to trust it so I was waiting for early in-person voting to start in my area.
To be fair, confronting white people about their problematic behavior or attitudes is a good way to get shot/stabbed.
Hey grandpa is just being his ol' rascaly self, you know how grandpa can be. Now pass me some of that butter for my canned green beans.
1. Election day hasn't happened
2. This feels like they're sensationalizing "Turnout among non-white voters isn't matching up to expectations" into "Only whites are voting and Biden's fucked because POC hate him"

That's the dream, ain't. But white voters have shown again and again they'll happily slit their own throats if meant keeping black and brown people down.
No wonder, given that there was a widespread voter suppression campaign targeted heavily at black voters in 2016. It would be naive to think there isn't one now, albeit a different one, as well. There is also evidence of a voter suppression campaign targeted at Latino voters going on.
When i went to my poll office lots of people were dropping their ballots off which is encouraging and the entrance is in the back of a mall.
i mean i can see a distrust of vbm. but that should have been reflected in early voting numbers. what's the difference between voting in person early and waiting until election day? unless black and latino people really like voting at the last minute
