There isn’t much room for error in this race. But now the Left has been completely blindsided.
Because a last minute test result threw the Harris campaign into total hysteria.
A new poll reveals that former President Donald Trump is gaining historic support from young minority voters, just weeks before Election Day.
According to the latest GenForward poll from the University of Chicago, released Wednesday, an impressive 26 percent of Black men aged 18 to 40 said they would vote for Trump — an undeniable shift from the overwhelming support Democrats have typically relied on from this demographic.
In contrast, only 12 percent of Black women said the same, showing a clear divide in gender support.
This is a major shift since the 2020 election, where Black voters backed Biden over Trump by a staggering nine-to-one margin.
Trump’s gains aren’t limited to Black men either.
He’s also making headway among young Latino men, with 44 percent saying they’d vote for him, up from about 38 percent in 2020.
Despite this momentum, Democratic nominee Kamala Harris still leads Trump overall in the poll, with a 47-35 edge, thanks to an oversampling of young voters of color.
However, the numbers show a troubling trend for Harris and the Democrats — a potential realignment among minority voters, especially along generational and gender lines.
While Harris continues to see strong support among women of color — 63% of Black, 60% of Asian American and Pacific Islander, and 55% of Latina women back her — her support among men is faltering.
This signals a growing dissatisfaction among young Black and Latino men who are frustrated with economic issues and the Biden-Harris administration’s immigration policies.
The former Vice President has tried to rally women of color to her side, but young minority men appear less convinced. Trump, on the other hand, has successfully captured their attention by addressing their concerns head-on.
His rallies have featured endorsements from high-profile Black celebrities and athletes, including Detroit rapper Trick Trick and boxing legend Tommy “Hitman” Hearns, further boosting his credibility in these communities.
Harris, meanwhile, has rolled out economic promises aimed at Black men, such as small business loans and marijuana legalization — moves that seem more reactive than proactive.
Former President Obama even stepped in, attempting to shame Black men into voting for Harris by suggesting they might hesitate to support a woman as president, a message that appears to have backfired.
Trump’s growing support among minority men is a clear signal that many voters are tired of the empty promises of the Harris-Biden administration.
As Election Day nears, the divide between Harris and Trump couldn’t be clearer — one candidate relies on old, worn-out identity politics, while the other is capturing the imagination of those seeking real change.
