Where Kamala Harris lost big city voters in the battlegrounds

These precincts, concentrated in Philadelphia, Atlanta, Charlotte, Milwaukee, Phoenix, and Las Vegas, are crucial for Democrats to win in order to secure victory in battleground states. However, the analysis conducted by POLITICO revealed a troubling trend for the party.

In predominantly Hispanic neighborhoods, voter turnout dropped significantly compared to the 2020 election. This decline was even more pronounced than in Black neighborhoods. Despite the lower turnout, there was a noticeable swing towards Trump among Hispanic voters. This shift to the right was consistent across different cities, income levels, and countries of origin within the Hispanic community.

Nationally, Trump managed to secure approximately 46% of the Hispanic vote, a significant increase from his support in the previous election. This surge in support for the GOP among Hispanic voters poses a challenge for Democrats, as these voters are crucial in battleground states.

The precincts with a majority Hispanic population in the six analyzed cities overwhelmingly favored Trump. This shift towards the Republican candidate cannot be solely attributed to a decline in Democratic turnout; there were clear indications of voters switching their allegiance.

While Hispanic voters may not be as heavily concentrated in urban areas as Black voters, their support is still vital for Democratic success. The fact that Hispanic neighborhoods across major cities exhibited both a drop in turnout and a swing towards Trump is a cause for concern for the Democratic Party.

Moving forward, Democrats will need to address the issues that led to this decline in support among Hispanic voters. Failure to do so could have significant consequences in future elections, particularly in battleground states where these voters play a crucial role in determining the outcome. The Hispanic communities in urban areas played a significant role in the 2020 election, with shifts toward Trump and decreased turnout observed in both low-income and middle-income Hispanic precincts. The data from six cities showed that these areas swung 8.2 points toward Trump and saw a drop of more than 11 percent in turnout.

One neighborhood that saw significant gains for Trump was Philadelphia’s Fairhill neighborhood, known for its vibrant row houses, murals, and historic burial ground. With a large concentration of Puerto Ricans, many voters in this area were motivated to cast a “punishment vote” against the Biden-Harris ticket for various reasons, including economic concerns and dissatisfaction with their handling of issues like the Israel-Hamas conflict and immigration.

On the other hand, white voters in urban areas, who have historically leaned more favorably towards Democrats compared to white voters in other regions, showed a slight shift towards the right in the 2020 election. While precincts with at least 85 percent white residents saw a small shift towards Trump, the swing was not as dramatic as in other neighborhoods. Turnout in these precincts remained similar to previous years.

Harris had hoped for robust turnout from a diverse range of voters in cities, but Trump’s gains eroded that coalition. Despite efforts in cities like Milwaukee, where traditional liberal support wavered towards Trump, Harris struggled to maintain the momentum needed to secure victory. Political scientist John Johnson noted that while the turnout among white populations in Milwaukee was relatively stable, it was not enough to counter the wave of support for Trump in other parts of the state.

Overall, the 2020 election highlighted the complex dynamics at play in urban areas, with shifts in voter preferences and turnout affecting the outcome. The data from these cities underscore the importance of understanding the diverse factors influencing voter behavior and the need for strategic planning to mobilize support across different demographics.
