The liberal outlet ‘The Hill’ is pushing a brand new NAACP ballot centered on black voters and Kamala Harris as if it’s nice information for her. It isn’t.
In a tweet, they are saying that black voters are much more excited to vote for Harris than they had been in 2008 when Obama was on the poll.
That is simply absurd, and that’s apparent the minute you begin studying their report.
Right here’s their tweet:
Black voters, buoyed by Kamala Harris, extra excited to vote in 2024 than in 2008: Ballot https://t.co/3COY4X60Hl

Feels like nice information for Kamala Harris, doesn’t it?
From the actual report:
A majority of Black voters are simply as excited or extra this 12 months as in 2008, when then-Sen. Barack Obama (D-Unwell.) grew to become the primary Black president, based on new polling.
A survey from the NAACP, in partnership with HIT Methods and Hart Analysis, discovered that 78 p.c of Black voters really feel the identical sense of pleasure as when Obama first ran, with 56 p.c being extra excited now than in 2008…
Fifty-one p.c of Black voters stated they might forged their ballots for Harris if the election had been held as we speak. Solely 27 p.c stated the identical of former President Trump.
However gender and generational disparities persist amongst Black voters.
Whereas 79 p.c of girls over the age of fifty stated they might vote for Harris, 66 p.c of males over 50 stated the identical. Solely 56 p.c of voters aged 18-49 stated the identical.
Twitter/X customers broke it down:
So I learn this ballot and it’s truly a catastrophe for Kamala Harris.
Obama gained over 95% of the black vote.
The NAACP has Kamala profitable 63% of the black vote, together with solely 49% of black males below 50. https://t.co/KO145tLeWs pic.twitter.com/W20a6gX2zj

The media is determined to show Kamala Harris into one other Obama however it simply isn’t occurring. It’s a unique nation than it was in 2008 and Harris can’t even do interviews with pleasant media figures who assist her.
