Democratic support among minority voters is slipping, according to polling and analytics from Gallup.
While Democrats still hold leads over the GOP in support among black and Hispanic voters, the Democratic Party’s edge is at a record low. While the gap has narrowed among those demographics, the gap in education groups has surged.
In 2023, Democrats had the largest lead over Republicans that either party possessed in any demographic in non-Hispanic black adults, according to Gallup. Sixty-six percent of black voters identified as Democrats or Democratic-leaning. Just 19% of black voters sided with Republicans.
That 47-point difference is a record low for the poll, however. The gap has never been that narrow since Gallup began its poll in 1999. In 2020, Democrats had a 66-point advantage over Republicans among black voters, with 77% siding with Democrats to the GOP’s 11%.
