Polls Show African-American Vote for Donald Trump is Double Mitt Romney’s Vote
Breitbart ^ | 5 Nov 16 | Neil Munro

Posted on 11/05/2016 7:08:49 AM PDT by xzins

Donald Trump is on track to double Gov. Mitt Romney’s support among African-American voters, according to a series of state polls.

In 2012, African-Americans comprised a record 13 percent of all voters. President Barack Obama was reelected with 93 percent of the African-American vote, leaving Gov. Mitt Romney with only 6 percent of the African-American vote. Obama is now campaigning against Trump, and hoping to keep his share of the African-American vote below the 11 percent that George W. Bush won in 2004 during the housing bubble.

On Friday, a poll of 506 Pennsylvania voters by Harper Polling showed Trump has the support of 18.46 percent of African-Americans. That’s eight points more than Romney’s share of the national vote in 2012, and if it proves true during the ballot, that 18.46 percent African-American support translates into 2 point shift towards Trump. The poll also said another 4.6 percent were undecided.

The Harper poll is small, with an error margin of 4.4 percent, but an Oct. 30 poll of 1,249 likely voters in Pennsylvania showed Trump has 19 percent support among African Americans, while another 7 percent remain undecided. That poll has a error margin of 2.77 percent.

In next-door Michigan, two nights of a tracking poll conducted for Fox 2 of 1,150 likely voters showed Trump with 14 percent support and 19 percent support, leaving Clinton with 83 percent and 79 percent support. That’s equivalent to a two-point shift from Clinton to Trump in the state.

“We’re showing Donald Trump doing far better among African-Americans than any other Republican in modern memory, said John Yob, CEO of a Michigan-based polling firm, Strategic National. Trump “has done an excellent job in campaigning for the votes of African-Americans,”

The major argument of the establishment about Trump was that minorities would never support him, and that minorities needed to be catered to with liberalese just like the democrats do.

Obviously, they were wrong about this and everything.

Music to my ears.

With those kind of numbers, Trump will win... bigly.

Hillary is only getting 74% of the black vote.

The Fat Lady is warming up.

I’m not convinced, I’m sticking to my 10% projection with the hope most stay home, which seems to be happening.

She gave 2 thumbs up!

Hopefully the black ministers( and all ministers) of America will speak out now that the horrible underground of occultism and pedophiia and contemot for Americans that underlies Hillary’s power network has begun to,surface

We truly are at a crossroads of human decency and hopefully the Lord is giving America the chance to make a choice despite the obstacles mounted by the evil ones - to include murder of brave people

We are one in this cause, not divided by our skin color or national origin or sex or even by our religion or lack of it

It is a choice: darkness or light

Think the concert thing with the 2 black “entertainers” was telling.

After the free stuff ran out..didnt give a crap what Cankles had to say.

This looks like three times the African American vote, not double.

Good, and I hope he is succesful in bringing better education and jobs to the inner cities, as he says. I have always thought it tantamount to a national security threat how uneducated and crime ridden life is in the city. If only there were some way decent family-oriented conservative values could be encouraged there rather than expensive socialist welfare dependency-encouraging programs and values-destroying liberal culture.

The FAA issued a Presidential TFR for Detroit on Monday. My first thought was: they’re in trouble
