Candidate Strategies for Black Voters
Both candidates in the U.S. election are making distinct efforts to engage with black voters, reflecting different campaign strategies. Trump recently addressed a conference of black journalists, asserting his commitment to job creation but made false claims about Kamala Harris's identity. His rhetoric aimed to downplay Harris's dual heritage as both black and Indian, highlighting a lack of respect. In contrast, Harris's recent rallies, particularly one in Atlanta, have energized the Democratic base, with strong enthusiasm and support from voters, especially women of color.
