The poll also found that 12% of Black voters support Trump, the same percentage as in the 2020 election.
“Although Trump hasn’t grown support among Black voters, he has closed the deficit because third-party voters come off of Biden’s support among Blacks,” said David Paleologos, the director of Suffolk’s Political Research Center. “A young voter or a person of color voting ‘third party’ is a vote away from President Biden, and a vote away from President Biden is a vote for Donald Trump.”
A December poll from the Wall Street Journal found that Biden’s approval rating has hit an all-time low.
The president’s overall job performance saw only 37% approval from survey respondents.
Only 23% of respondents said Biden has helped them personally, while 53% said they have been hurt by his policies.
