New study shows Black voters are concerned with nation’s economy
The Grio ^

Posted on 07/28/2022 9:06:16 AM PDT by Houserino

The Black Futures Lab released on Thursday the findings of its Black Census Project 2022 which shows that Black America is most concerned with the state of the U.S. economy.

Activist and study organizer Alicia Garza, of the Black to the Future Action Fund, told theGrio, “The number one issue for Black people in America is economics.”

Black Lives Matter Co-Founder Alicia Garza speaks during the Women’s March “Power to the Polls” voter registration tour launch at Sam Boyd Stadium on January 21, 2018, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Demonstrators across the nation gathered over the weekend, one year after the historic Women’s March on Washington, D.C., to protest President Donald Trump’s administration and to raise awareness for women’s issues.

This just in ... black females will continue to vote well over 90% for the DEM candidates. The most one-sided voting group in the US, and it’s not even close.

They needed a study for that? If it’s a liberal organization, they are probably shocked that their racist thoughts aren’t on the list. What did they think they were going to say? POLICE BRUTALITY? TRANSGENDER RIGHTS? CLIMATE CHANGE?

And yet, most of them will continue to vote for the party that is deliberately harming them, though there is all too gradual seepage.

This sort of thing might matter, if we counted votes at election time. But it’s not clear that actual vote counting takes place.

Will it help us pickup those 4 winnable senate seats? That’s all that matters. That and keeping Penn/Wis.

On the bright side, you don't have Trump to kick around any more (at least not yet). Enjoy the suck, Alicia Garza. You voted for it and you are getting it good and hard now. You #$%&@# A%$&hole.

Why? There’s no recession. So we’re told.

I think this is my fav quote:

“As we head into the midterm elections, it is absolutely not a guarantee that the strongest constituency of the Democratic Party is going to be an anchor again for the Democratic Party,” she cautioned. “That has severe consequences, as you know, in this political climate.”

I seriously doubt that “concern” will translate into Republican or any other votes EXCEPT Democrat.

Most black voters 80%-85% are afraid to leave the Plantation, with the remaining 10% or so being True Believers.

Black..one parent.. families.
Last time I checked only 20% of black families have two parents?
Which was the case before welfare
..and the welfare recipient..ruined the whole family structure.

Also,adding on to my post.
Slavery did not destroy the black family structure.
White supremacists..not counting democrats..did not destroy the black family structure.
The “free” government give aways ..including the blacks that went along with it..did terrible harm to the black family unit.

Very true.

What was very unusual in 2020 was that guys I had known for years, either as friends or colleagues would quietly confide that they were voting for Trump but “don’t tell anyone else”, which I understood to especially include their families.

But the concerns were purely pragmatic, they thought that the Democrat party would reverse all of the economic gains of the Trump years, which were finally giving them some real hope for their sons and younger male relations.

The “stupid party”, if it wasn’t so stupid, would be working overtime to address the concerns of the working class man, of any color. There’s a big common ground, which Trump understands, and seemingly, virtually no one else in the Republican party has grokked* to.

* I always forget how to spell that. Apologies to Robert Heinlein.
