Zogby: African American vote breaking heavily for Kerry...


In 2000, Vice President Gore took a huge margin among African-Americans, winning them 90% to 9% for Mr. Bush. In 2000 our tracking poll on October 20th showed Mr. Gore leading Mr. Bush 85% to 9% with 4% undecided. Our tracking poll today shows Mr. Kerry leading Mr. Bush 83% to 8% with 8% undecided. In fact, among our sample of likely African American voters, more say they are very likely to vote in this election (96%) than said they were very likely to vote in 2000 (93%). And, with Democratic-leaning 527 groups focusing heavily on minority voter registration and turnout, African Americans could comprise more of the electorate than the 10% they made up last time.

I know there were other repuke articles claiming Bush was gaining ground on the black vote vs. Kerry. Once again, they're proven wrong.

:toast: These numbers look good.

9. Good news? Common sense!
Those stories about black voters "trending" toward Bush were planted as part of the Ocotober surprise--polling reports as weapons of mass demoralization. Do you HONESTLY think that there are enough black voters who hate gays and have forgiven Bush for disenfranching AND ignoring them to swing the election? It was just another one of those "alternative realities" the Bush empire manufactures.
