The GenForward survey, which ran from Sept. 26 to Oct. 6 by the University of Chicago and included 2,359 eligible voters 18 to 40 years old, included some fascinating findings:

A quarter of young Black men are supporting Trump. (Black men overall backed President Joe Biden nearly nine to one in 2020.)
44 percent of young Latino men said they’d back Trump, an improvement over the roughly 38 percent who backed him in 2020.
For her part, Harris is at 58 percent with Black men, 37 percent with Latinos and 57 percent with Asian American and Pacific Islander men.
Kamala Harris is doing incredibly well among women of color. A majority of Black (63 percent), Asian American and Pacific Islander (60 percent) and Latina (55 percent) women say they will vote for Harris.
White women are nearly evenly split between Harris (44 percent) and Trump (40 percent).

“[We are] hard-working people, and we’re letting people into this country to not just take jobs away and move us into poverty by paying for these people who are not working, but we have an unsafe community. We’re not strong around the world, and we’re losing this country. There’s people who have come to this country, risked all for everything, and only to find that it’s becoming the land of exploitation,” he said.

Nothing but an anecdote, but I was driving through a largely lower middle class predominantly Hispanic neighborhood yesterday and noticed quite a few Cruz and Trump signs.

Gen Z are going to be a fascinating voting bloc for the next 20 years.

Another big rally today. A speaker made a joke about he and his “black friend” carving watermelons last night. This is awesome. I hope Donald and his surrogates continue to milk their first amendment freedoms, because libz and all that.

Trump surrogate at his “rally” today, trying to gotv of the Hispanic community

Trump rally speaker: “And these Latinos, they love making babies too. Just know that. They do. They do. There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside. Just like they did to our country.”

Surrogate? Is he having Trump’s baby? He made stupid jokes at a meeting, that’s all. Hopefully not asked back.

This won’t effect a single thing but jokes at a meeting is some fun minimization.

Calling him a Trump surrogate is some kind of maximization, but that doesn’t seem to bother you.

FreeAndClear · 2024-10-28T13:56:46.417Z

He is def not a Trump surrogate. It was also not a meeting.

It’s not as if you countered the hyperbole over a a bad joke that barely anyone laughed at with a sensible response by referencing that it was a bad joke that barely anyone laughed at

Nope it was some jokes at a meeting. See the difference?

DougBH · 2024-10-28T13:58:27.697Z

Fine. I can live with it was a bad joke at a raly that hardly anyone there laughed at…but Democrats loved.

And the best part is that the campaign didn’t even need to vet it because they knew nobody is going to pay attention to it even if used as fodder.

They had to come up with something to try and put down a magnificent rally at Maga Square Garden.

Kamala and her supporters are Flailing at this point and know it.
