Democrats are reportedly panicking over President Biden’s poor standing among non-white voters. A deep dive into recent polls shows they have reason to be worried: It’s even worse than they think.
The Democratic Party has long relied on massive margins among non-white voters to offset significant deficits with whites. Their presidential candidates have not carried the white vote since at least 1972 and have not come within ten points of the Republican since 1996. That deficit has only grown larger since Donald Trump won, and even the well-documented leftward shift of college-educated whites only reduced Biden’s white-voter deficit to 17 points, according to the exit polls.
