Donald Trump Did Better With Blacks & Hispanics Than Mitt Romney in 2012 Exit Polls … Hillary Clinton Under-Preformed
I GUARANTEE TRUMP DID EVEN BETTER THAN EXIT POLLS CLAIMS AS MANY WOULD NEVER ADMIT THEY VOTED FOR TRUMP …
As reported at NBC, Donald Trump did better in the 2016 presidential election exit polls with blacks and Hispanics than Mitt Romney did in 2012. According to exit polls, Trump claimed 29% of the Hispanic vote on Tuesday compared to Romney’s 27% in 2012. And with blacks, exit polls show Trump claimed 8% of the vote to the previous Republican nominee’s 6%. I will state that the numbers were probably even greater for Trump s many blacks and Hispanics would never have admitted to a polling agent who they voted for. The minority Clinton firewall was breached. Why did this happen, maybe because Trump was willing to speak the truth. Trump also made a plea for the minority vote and promised to help aid the inner cities, promises that have been long made by Democrats in the past and ignored, even by the first elected black president, Barack Obama.
I had said from the outset of this election, even if Hillary Clinton garnered the same percentage of the black vote, there was no way the number of blacks would come out and support her as compared to Obama. That was just common logic. Hillary was not going to inspire blacks to vote for her like the first elected black president. In the end, she could not even manage to get the same percentage. 88% as compared to 93% for Obama in 2012. If Donald Trump does what he says in not forgetting minorities and putting them back to work, the Democrat lock on minorities may be broken forever.
Donald Trump performed stronger among black and Hispanic voters than Mitt Romney did as the Republican nominee in 2012, according to NBC Exit Polls.
Tuesday’s exit poll results have not yet been finalized but so far they show Trump outmatching Romney by two points in each voting bloc.
Trump claimed 29 percent of the Hispanic vote on Tuesday compared to Romney’s 27 percent in 2012. With blacks, exit polls show Trump claimed 8 percent of the vote to the previous Republican nominee’s 6 percent.
That means Trump — who called Mexicans “rapists” and “killers” — garnered more support from Hispanics than a candidate whose most controversial position was telling undocumented immigrants to “self-deport.”
Trump has frequently linked blacks to “inner city” slums and crime at rallies. Yet he performed better among African American voters than a considerably more moderate Republican nominee.
The fail of Hillary Clinton with minorities.
Among the many questions early exit polls are raising about Donald Trump’s upset victory Tuesday evening is how Hillary Clinton underperformed so severely among black and Hispanic voters, when she was expected to overwhelmingly sweep up each demographic.
Exit polls from CNN and NBC show that Trump managed to perform better among black and Hispanic voters than Republican nominee Mitt Romney did in 2012.
Yet despite a surge in early voting among Hispanics in states like Florida, Arizona, and Nevada, which boosted expectations of a Clinton victory, she ended up winning just 65% of the Hispanic vote — down from Obama’s 71% in 2012.
Clinton, who had relied on black voters as her “firewall” during the primaries, received less of their vote than expected in the general election. She only received 88% of their vote, down from the whopping 93% who supported Obama in 2012.
An interesting tid-bit of info comes from the Daily Caller … “despite expectations that his path to victory depended on supercharging white turnout, Trump did not outperform Romney among white voters. He received just 58 percent of the white vote, a small drop from Romney’s 59 percent. Clinton, though, dropped further, winning just 37 percent of whites compared to Obama’s 39 percent”.
