The Politics of Black Voters
The survey of black voters conducted by the Grian KFF published on Wednesday asked thousand black adults who say they are registered to vote for their opinion on policing. Half said they would like to see police funding kept about the same while 34% said they wanted increased financial support. Just 17% responded that they support decreasing the funding for the police. The poll also found that that three on four black voters viewed criminal justice and policing as a very important factor in making their decision about who to vote for, including 77% of Democrats and 68% of Republicans.
