Democratic strategist and former Clinton staffer James Carville continues to sound the alarm on the record-breaking number of young minority voters leaving the Democratic Party; “They’re leaving in droves,” Carville said during a recent podcast.
“I’ve been very vocal about this,” Carville said. “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.

From Fox News:
Last year, a Gallup survey found 66% of Black adults leaned or identified as a Democrat compared to 19% who said they either leaned or identified as a Republican, a 19-point dip from the advantage Democrats held in 2020 and the closest margin in at least 25 years.
The poll also found 47% of Hispanics identified as Democrats while 35% identified as Republican. In 2021, 57% of Hispanics identified as Democrats and 26% described themselves as Republicans.
Black and Hispanic voters are key Democratic voting blocs, and President Biden has also been losing support from both demographics, as he prepares to take on former President Trump in November.
A USA Today/Suffolk University poll published in January found Biden’s support among Black voters was at 63%, a 24-point drop from the 87% he had in 2020.
