Half the voters who voted for Biden in 2020 did not vote for him in 2024. Black voters way of protesting is staying home.
It is. All those polls that showed Bidens approval with Blacks has dropped around 50% proved to be true last night. 2024 will have the lowest black turnout ever and Trump will have the highest share of black voters for a republican ever.I'm guessing around 20%
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/south-carolina-democratic-primary-turnout-2024-joe-biden/ Around 131,000 South Carolinians voted in the 2024 Democratic primary, making up just around 4% of registered voters statewide. The showing marks the lowest turnout in the last few presidential primaries for Democrats, though those contests were notably more competitive. Turnout for this year's Democratic primary fell well below previous contests. In 2020, 540,000 people — around 16% of voters —participated in the Democratic primary, while in 2016, 373,063 — more than 12% — did the same. In 2012, former President Barack Obama ran unopposed in the primary, but in 2008, 532,151 turned out, accounting for around 23% of registered voters, according to the South Carolina Election Commission. I haven't seen exit polling yet but here's previous yrs:
Blah blah blah. Parties don’t run traditional primaries when they have an incumbent president seeking reelection. You make it as though the democrats are doing something radical by coalescing around the incumbent. They’re not. Yes, Biden has problems in the general. We get it. Most incumbents lose support seeking reelection too. See Obama 2012, Trump 2020. Biden’s challenges currently are bleaker than both. So what? Biden doesn’t have to be perfect to beat Trump, whom actually has significant downside issues of his own. You keep telling me what’s going to happen. Back in the day Warren was going to be the nominee according to you, then Biden won’t be the nominee this go around, etc. You got to at least get some of this stuff right once in a while. Broken clocks have more wins than you. The third party thing is a real thing. You and @Tony Stark are going to claim it’s a thing for different reasons but the truth is if it’s about anything it’s about money, ie where RFKjr is getting his money from and why would they fund him. Can it happen? Sure. It’s going to take a lot more than you and Tony realize but yea it’s a real possibility.
You are the one who who needs to hear that - not me. You getting all excited over Biden's "win" and pointing out that that it means that there is not much protest out there in regard to him. Smarten up for crisesake. He is the only one the dem machine allowed to run. Technically they could but they become personna non grata in the beltway if they did. The couple fringies don't care.
glass houses and all that; oh, you were a hypocrite that supported the move when done for your cult leader: https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/the-party-of-trump.335730/#post-4922020
