Biden's Approval Among Black Voters Drops; New Strategies Suggested

Democratic strategists propose engaging Black voters more effectively and amplifying abortion rights arguments, citing successful 2022 campaigns in Michigan and Georgia.

President Biden's approval rating among Black adults has dropped from 86% in July 2021 to 50% in December 2023, raising concerns about his reelection prospects.
A group of Democratic strategists suggests that the party needs to engage Black voters more effectively, using the recent campaigns in Georgia and Michigan as models.
The strategists recommend regular engagement with all Black voters, including the most reluctant, and amplifying arguments about abortion rights in Black communities.
In 2022, Black voter turnout in Michigan and Georgia outpaced other battleground states, contributing to key Democratic victories.
The report argues for long-term investment in voter engagement, which they believe can create 'super voters' who consistently participate in elections.
