Former Clinton staffer and Democratic strategist James Carville has admitted they are losing young minority voters to former president Donald Trump.
According to Carville, minority voters are leaving the party ‘in droves.’
Carville is in panic mode, and rightly so.
The New York Post reported:
Democratic strategist James Carville warned Sunday that the Democratic Party’s eroding numbers among young minority voters are “horrifying” heading into the presidential election.
“I’ve been very vocal about this,” the former Bill Clinton campaign strategist said on his “Carville’s Classroom” podcast.
“It’s horrifying our numbers among younger voters, particularly younger blacks, younger Latinos… younger people of color. Particularly males.”
“We’re not shedding them; they’re leaving in droves,” he added.
Last year, 66% of black adults leaned or identified as Democrat while 19% said they leaned or were Republican, according to a Gallup survey released in February.
The 47-percentage-point spread is the lowest in at least 25 years — and down 19 percentage points from 2020, when 77% of black adults identified as Democrats and just 11% identified as Republicans.
Similarly, the poll found 47% of Hispanics calling themselves Democrats and 35% identifying as Republican, whereas in 2021, 57% of Hispanics identified as Democrat and 26% said they were Republican.

As we highlighted last month, even CNN is having trouble hiding their shock at recent polls showing former President Donald Trump’s rising popularity among minority voters.
The New York Times and Siena College poll, which shows black and Hispanic voters believe Trump’s policies are more beneficial than Joe Biden’s, has both Democrats and the media in panic,
CNN host Laura Coates discussed the poll’s findings and implications for Democrats as minorities shift away from leftism.
Trump’s policies, which were viewed as more favorable among minorities, caused a strong response on the show.
