US radio host Charlamagne tha God says opinion polls suggesting black Americans may flee the Democratic party to vote for Donald Trump may be “overstated”.
"Both President Joe Biden, a Democrat, and Trump, a Republican, have ramped up their efforts to court black voters, as November’s White House election looms.Pollsters currently predict a tight race decided between a few swing states, where some polls have shown Trump gaining ground among black voters, a key Democratic voting bloc.
“I’m sure there are some black men that support Donald Trump, but that is not the overall sentiment,” added the broadcaster, whose legal name is Lenard McKelvey.A recent New York Times and Sienna College poll suggested that over 20% of black voters in key swing states - Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin - would back Trump in November.
That signals a deep shift compared to 2020, when 92% of black voters nationally cast their ballot for Mr Biden to help him win, according to Pew Research.
But McKelvey - host of the popular radio show The Breakfast Club, which boasts over 4.5 million weekly listeners - said that support might be “a little over-overstated”.The negative polling for Democrats is more of a signal of black voter frustration than a new voting trend, he added.
There is also speculation that Trump may choose Tim Scott, a black Senator from South Carolina, as his running mate to win over more of the African-American vote.
