Black Voters Demand More: Trump and Harris Battle for Support in Georgia

Young Black voters in Georgia are increasingly showing support for Donald Trump, potentially impacting the outcome of the presidential election.

Preston Paris, a 19-year-old computer science student, has publicly declared his support for Trump, citing his foreign policy and economic plans.

Recent polls indicate a decline in support for Kamala Harris among Black voters in Georgia, with 73.8% backing her compared to 7.6% for Trump. This drop in support has prompted Harris’s campaign to announce a program to support Black men, featuring loans for start-ups and vocational training.

Experts warn that Black voters can no longer be taken for granted by either party. “Black people have been helping everyone else except themselves,” says Jarrod Grant, a professor of political science at Clark Atlanta University.
“The question now is, ‘What is your Black agenda?'”

Trump’s economic policies and appointments to the Supreme Court have resonated with some Black voters, including 23-year-old JP, who supports Trump due to his Christian faith. With Georgia being a battleground state, every vote counts, and this shift in support could have significant implications for the election outcome.

As the presidential election nears, both parties are making a concerted effort to win over Black voters. Republicans are capitalizing on dissatisfaction with the Democratic Party, while Democrats are scrambling to regain lost ground.
