President Joe Biden is experiencing a decline in support among nonwhite voters, particularly Black and Hispanic voters, according to national polls conducted by The New York Times and Siena College. On average, Biden leads former President Donald Trump by just 53% to 28% among registered nonwhite voters, a significant drop from the over 70% support he received in the 2020 election. This erosion of support among nonwhite voters could have implications for the Democratic Party's strength in future elections, as it continues a decade-long trend of declining support among the party's foundational voter base. Biden's weak support among nonwhite voters may result in low turnout, especially among young and less engaged voters, and could be exacerbated by factors such as his age and inflation. The data also suggests an education gap among nonwhite voters, with Biden losing ground among less affluent and less educated nonwhite voters. Overall, Biden's weakness among nonwhite voters spans across various demographic categories and racial groups, indicating a broad decline in support.
