RFK Jr. Targets Black Voters as Biden's Support Declines

Kennedy leverages family's civil rights legacy and focuses on podcast outreach in bid to win over key demographic.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is focusing his presidential campaign on winning over minority voters, as a growing number of black voters consider an alternative to President Joe Biden.
Recent polling has shown a major decline in support for Biden among black voters and growing support for Kennedy.
Kennedy has largely tapped into his own family’s history when speaking to black voters, highlighting the Kennedys' legacy as allies of the black community.
Kennedy's strategy includes focusing on podcast interviews rather than traditional media outlets, reaching a different, and often younger, audience.
Kennedy's next campaign stop is in Charlottesville, Virginia, on Jan. 26, 2024.
