“President Donald Trump’s shoutout to the far-fight hate group Proud Boys is energizing black voters to turn out against him in the must-win state of Florida. ‘His call to the white supremacist group Proud Boys to stand by,’ and telling his followers to go to the polls and watch them, that is straight up voter suppression,” said incoming state Minority Leader Bobby DuBose, a Black Broward County Democrat. DuBose made his comments during a conference call to roll out Democrat Joe Biden’s ‘Black men, VOTE!’ campaign, a push to secure what has been an important but inconsistent Florida voting bloc. Florida’s Black vote has been consequential in recent election cycles, delivering an outsized impact on outcomes in a battleground where every vote matters. Trump’s remark on Tuesday could motivate Black voters, which overwhelmingly support Democrats, in a state he almost certainly has to take to win reelection” – Politico.
