Joe Biden is losing support among non-white voters, according to an analysis of Siena College polling data by The New York Times.
Biden, who has championed “racial equity” as a policy priority, won the 2020 presidential election with support from 70%of non-white voters, according to the Times. Ahead of the 2024 presidential election, however, Biden is leading former President Donald Trump — the leading candidate for the Republican nomination — with 53% support, according to Siena College polling data, representing a 17 percentage point decline in support.
The polling data for Biden’s support mirrors a decade-long decline in Democratic presidential nominees’ support from minority communities. Among black voters, whereas then-President Barack Obama won 95% of the black vote in 2012, support for Biden among black voters ahead of the 2024 election is down to 88%, according to data reported by the Times.
Among Hispanic voters, the decline has been even greater. Whereas Obama won 70% of the Hispanic vote in 2012, Biden has merely 59% support ahead of 2024, according to the Times.
The declines in vote share continued for both communities during both the 2016 and 2020 elections when Trump was the Republican nominee. Only among non-white voters who were neither black nor Hispanic did the Democratic nominee’s vote share increase in 2016, but it has again declined since then, the Times reported.
The decline cuts across other demographic factors such as age, education and gender, according to the analysis. When assessed by income, only non-white voters with an annual income exceeding $100,000 a year support Biden in greater numbers than their vote share for him in 2020.
Biden has frequently touted his economic policies, known as “Bidenomics,” as an argument for his reelection. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is currently 3.2%, with inflation being considered the most important issue by voters, according to Pew Research.
Biden’s approval rating is currently 47% among non-white voters, according to the latest Siena College poll published on Aug. 1. His approval rating nationally is 39%.
The White House and the Biden campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
