discussion The shifts to Trump in some of the large cities by Demographic

[Armani?]

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/06/upshot/urban-vote-shift-trump.html

For people confused for example, a 10pt swing isn't literally 10% more Trump on the margin, but rather 5% more Trump and -5% less Democrat since 2020

 

The entirety of Miami collapsing equally

 

The Hispanic & Asian plummet in NYC & Chicago

 

That Wisconsin exit poll was so far off, that's barely a movement for Black voters

 

Detroit still being 90% Kamala despite nearly 23% of the population jumping off a cliff

 

Doesn't look like the ads worked in Nevada at all

[Mordecai]

It would be interesting to see a breakdown of Trump's raw vote totals because from what I understand, the number of votes Trump has netted across all three elections was very similar. That probably paints a more accurate picture of his support as opposed to democrat turnout was down so the numbers would shift right regardless

[Onyxmage]

And all these losers get what they deserve. 

 

 

and miss me with that "condescending" democrat attitude. No these people are literal LOSERS. Especially the minorities that voted for him.

Turnout can explain most of the small shift for places like Philly, Detroit & Atlanta for Black voters,  but not for the other cities like NYC & Chicago. Turnout didn't really drop in Milwaukee at all ironically(even though 2020 levels is still bad there), but it has the smallest shift here

 

Hispanic & Asian Voters have too large shifts on avg to just be that.

A huge amount of his boomer supporters died thanks to COVID. He did get new stans.

Awwwww shucks. @Gov Hooka  shoulda tried harder!

Interesting. I kind of figured white people would have been the biggest shift towards Trump. In all but 3 (and Miami seems to be pretty even for most of the shift) this is not the case. 

[Radical Pessimism]

Will this shift still hold in the midterms in 2026 after two years of Trump? I don't think so.

I'm appalled by this logic. Does it even make sense?

Might be the fearmongering of crime & also many undocumented immigrants being there with the typical inflation concerns

Asians have been largely ignored and sidelined by Democrats for decades. What is happening is the Asian demographic is growing rapidly, and Democrats continue to ignore them. Republics saw this weakness in much of NY, and courted them over years. Especially after the Asian hate crimes, and attacks against them like being pushed into trains. 
 

Democrats are actually pretty bad in this aspect. They get so comfortable that Republicans have no issue coming in and targeting ignored groups.

It doesn't and they will be shocked by their actions

[JustHoran]

Anyone that fell for the felon's lies a second time, deserves what they get. In 2016 you really didn't know what he would be like but EVERYONE knows the type of person he is now and they still voted for him. It's insane. This country is really going to go downhill thanks to him, and I will be moving out of the country ASAP.

Minorities are tired of being used as pawns. Identity politics has DESTROYED the dem party and people are finally waking up to it. Sanctuary cities are a mess and hurt legal citizens, crime and inflation are the worst in dem run cities, and minorities are tired of being told if they complain about it that they are racist, self hating, needing white approval, and whatever nonsense the dems spew to stay in power. The election was a wake up call and these flop dem leaders better get the message.

Lmao at the casual racism against Asians (and general liberal smugness) in here. 

 

It is not a surprise that Asians swung hard for Trump this year. They are historically taken for granted by the Democrats and have been relegated to second class status (in the Dem establishments' eyes anyway) in favor of other minorities. Asians value hard work esp in education and crave for security so when you have affirmative action policies particularly affecting them and you have a wave of racist attacks hurled against them and the Democrats did nothing about it, its not surprising that they looked the other way. Folks will say why are they choosing the racist party but really, when the so called pro diversity party is neglecting you like fodder candy, why even bother voting for them? Thats the logic that goes on in their minds and I presume that Latinos also have the same thinking. 

 

It must be noted that most of the Asian swings were from working class neighborhoods (not in the suburbs where they remained solidly blue afaik) so once again its another element of the working class votes going to Trump.

 

People here on ATRL could use some self awareness before acting all smug like self righteous pricks. We need to persuade not to lash out like some emotionally impaired wonk who missed out on his scheduled therapy. Our side need these votes and as long as this elitist snobbish mindset continue to prevail in Dem circles, well I wouldnt be surprised if these voters would end up like the white working class ones that have become solidly GOP.

Looks like they shifted in some suburbs as well
