On most issues, Black voters are more confident in Harris than Trump

The overwhelming majority of Black registered voters support Vice President Kamala Harris over former President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential race, according to a recent Pew Research Center survey. More than eight-in-ten (84%) say they would vote for Harris if the election were held today, while 13% say they would vote for Trump. Four years ago, 92% of Black validated voters cast their ballots for President Joe Biden and 8% voted for Trump.

Now that Harris is the Democratic nominee, the majority of Black voters (57%) also say they are very or fairly satisfied with the candidates in the race. In July, when Biden was the likely Democratic nominee, just 31% of Black voters said the same.
