In the final stretch of the midterms, Black voters say economic woes, abortion, and criminal justice reform remain top issues. Nearly three in four Black voters rate economic woes such as inflation and the cost of living as the biggest concern facing their families, according to a recent survey from the news outlet theGrio and KFF.
A separate poll from political research firm HIT Strategies and the NAACP found nearly 45% of Black voters in battleground states such as Georgia said racism was a top issue, followed by inflation and criminal justice reform. The surveys come as Black people, who have overwhelmingly voted Democrat, will likely play a significant role in several battleground states when the final votes are tallied on Election Day.
"In all of these (mid-term) races, right, the Black vote and the Black turnout is probably the most determinative factor in whether these people are going to win or not," Jermaine House is the senior director of communication at HIT Strategies, a Washington, D.C.-pubic research firm focused on millennials and people of color. In Georgia, where the race between Democrat Sen. Raphael Warnock and Republican challenger Herschel Walker could determine control of the Senate, Black voters make up a third of the electorate, according to the Pew Research Center.
