Shock Poll: Trump Gets 20 Percent of Black Vote in Florida Poll; Leads Clinton Overall 43 to 41
Gateway Pundit ^ | 8/24/2016 | Kristinn Taylor

Twenty percent of African-American voters in Florida support Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump according to a poll released Wednesday by Florida Atlantic University.

The poll hit as Trump is visiting Tampa for a mid-day rally at the State Fairgrounds.

The poll shows Trump with a two point lead of rival Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, 43 to 41 percent, within the poll’s 2.7 percent margin of error. Clinton has the support of 68 percent of African-American voters in Florida. 1200 registered Florida voters were surveyed from August 19-22.

Possible, but something is certainly off with the sampling at some level, Trump is up with I’s by 10-20% depending on the poll, if he’s double his support among Blacks compared to a typical republican as well, there is no way he’s only up 2, something is off somewhere in the sampling or filtering of the raw data.

I saw on another thread of this topic where someone said this poll is Dem +6. I think reality is actually closer to Dem +3.

So I bet Trumps lead is a point or two higher then this poll shows.

“Every black that is gainfully employed is one less black likely to resort to criminal activity for financial reasons”

That could be said about every race and every person. That’s why we need jobs and less government welfare. When welfare earns more than work, that is a problem.

The dems are losing their minds over this. They thought they had Trump at the muzlim family thing, then at the Second Amendment kill hill thing, then they thought that everybody would believe he’s a racist.

***

The current meme is that Trump is flip-flopping on immigration.

Got a bunch of concern trolls around trying to float that one.

If 20% are publicly stating they are voting for Trump then the actual swing toward him is probably much higher. There is tremendous pressure in the black community to toe the line and this poll number is startling to me.

Reagan only got 9% of the black vote. Maybe they are finally waking up as a group to just how destructive the welfare state is.

There are pretty obvious reasons for Trumps appeal to black voters.

1. Trump himself.
He doesn’t talk down to people, he talks TO people.
He uses language that even the LIV can understand.

Blacks have seen the illegals move in and steal the jobs that were left.
Trump tells them he is going to produce jobs and get the illegals out.

Advantage Trump.

2. The Apprentice/Celebrity Apprentice shows.
On his long running tv shows Trump has been seen giving blacks and minorities a fair shake.
This fairly destroys the typical dem racist/sexist mantra.
Its out in the open, the dems and white guilt crowd get no traction there.

Advantage Trump.

3. *DIAMOND AND SILK*!!!!
Having two, more or less, average black women being so strongly vocal for him is pure GOLD.
When has an average black gone this much in for anyone with an R beside their name?
These gals give other blacks cover to say good things about Trump when normally they may be intimidated to stay quiet.
That gives blacks the okay to vote for him instead of doing the same old, same old democrat shuffle.

YUUUUGGE advantage Trump.

4. Americans love a fighter.
Americans love Trumps style of fighting. The “hit me and I hit back twice as hard in places it hurts more” style of fighting wins with Americans and blacks are no exceptions.

Advantage Trump.

5. Donald Trump is not a politician!
He can’t be painted with the same whitewash as a Romney or McCain.
Voters are free to project their own hopes and desires when discussing Trump the Candidate.

Big advantage Trump.

Not possible? Depends on the turnout of dead voters. Hillary will get 99.9% of those.

No, the MSM will be in denial mode right up to the election.

They will be calling it 'too close to call'

By October, it will appear as if Trump is running unopposed If that happens, Hillary will get cut out of the race.

Hillary cares no more for the D party than she cares for the country. Rather than give up her nomination, she would see the party destroyed.
