THE HILL
— Critical Race Theory and the threat to Democrats – J.T. YOUNG
https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/564588-crts-threat-to-democrats
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Buried in 2020’s tumult was the inroad Donald Trump made into Democrats’ core groups. From 2016 to 2020, Trump increased his percentage of support among Blacks (4 percent), Latinos (4 percent), Asians (7 percent), Women (1 percent), and Others (5 percent). Democrats are extremely dependent on winning big majorities in these groups, each of which (with the exception of Women) are decided electoral minorities. Even with Trump’s inroads, Biden still won large margins in each: Blacks (87 percent), Latinos (65 percent), Asians (61 percent), Women (57 percent) and Others (55 percent).)
