Black Turnout Will Be Crucial for Democrats

Democrat’s ability to get African American voters to the polls will be a crucial factor in determining whether or not they will keep their seats in both the Senate and the House. This will be especially important for Democratic candidates in the south who must also try to get more conservative whites to vote for them. The DNC will increase ads to get people out to vote. Unlike many white voters polls show that African American voters still support the president, this will help Democrats incumbents in the upcoming election. Democrats will continue to have an uphill battle as many voters believe that the president’s regulatory policies and expansion of government are taking the country in the wrong direction.
