Donald Trump Gains Among Younger Latinos, Blacks
breitbart.com ^ | 10/20/2020 | Neil Munro

President Donald Trump is gaining support from younger Latino and black voters, contradicting the roar of claims by establishment groups that he and his policies are racist.

Trump “gained among voters of color, especially Hispanic voters and younger Black voters,” says an October 19 report by Fivethirtyeight.com, a firm that tracks public attitudes on many issues. “Trump is attracting 35 percent of Hispanic voters under age 45, up from the 22 percent who backed him four years ago,” the site said.

Losing ground among whites, but who cares about them, right?

This cannot be real because Joe ‘Crime Boss’ Biden is so far ahead! /sarc

The real people that need to be polled is the people who count the ballots.....

I’m going on internet record to say California is in play. I said this on October 18th...based on some travels within the state and news like this.

The left abandoned the Latino vote to chase the BLM crowd...not a smart move.

In a way, it’s OK for a political party to gradually lose some white support, especially older white support.

It’s great for the GOP to make inroads with Latinos and Asians as whites will be the minority in the US by 2045.

(Hey I did my part—I had 4 kids!)

fivethirtyeight prints this yet still gives Trump almost zero chance of winning.

Makes sense.

To be horrifically wrong last time and double down on being horrifically wrong again makes no sense.

He has lots of articles on why polling is different this time blah blah.

He will be splainin himself again this year.

this article takes information from a 538 article that has the headline: Trump Is Losing Ground With White Voters But Gaining Among Black And Hispanic Americans

I really doubt he’s “losing ground with white voters”.

Fivethirtyeight.com is having a bad day. You can see it in some of the Dem talking heads. They already know their polls lie.

This is great-but someone PLEASE tell the people at Fivethirtyeight.com that most Hispanics are White/Caucasian-not “people of color” whatever that is-I’m Hispanic and White/Caucasian-and I don’t know any Hispanic person of any age here who is not voting for pres Trump...

That is not true-since most of us are White/Caucasian-Hispanic is not a race-it is an ethnic group...

What’s wrong with ‘older white people’, your words say you descriminate against ‘older wHite people’. Please explain to this old white person, We have a lot to offer to you young people. And remember it’s an old guy that runs this site.

The early voting gives the lie to that claim.

Trump is gaining everywhere among all groups--partially because Biden is the weakest Democratic nominee since Mondale.

This video walks you through the details, state by state, group by group:

Optimism is needed and appreciated, but let's not go overboard here.
