Harris Unveils Comprehensive Agenda to Support Black Men and Boost Voter Engagement

ai generated text

US Vice-President Kamala Harris has launched a plan to provide economic opportunities for Black men, which includes better regulating cryptocurrency and supporting legalizing marijuana. This move is part of her efforts to win back Black male voters who are drifting towards Donald Trump ahead of the presidential election. Recent polling suggests Harris' Republican rival Trump has been successful in winning over Black voters, prompting Harris to ramp up her outreach to these demographics.

1. In the new poll – which was conducted October 4-8 – Harris gets support from 48 per cent of registered voters in a head-to-head match-up, while Trump gets an identical 48 per cent. Another 4 per cent say they are undecided or wouldn't vote for either option when forced to choose between those two major-party candidates.

2. He considers anyone who doesn't support him, or who will not bend to his will, an enemy of our country.
3. Kamala Harris will fight to ensure, as the national cannabis industry takes shape, Black men – who have, for years, been over-policed for marijuana use – are able to access wealth and jobs in this new market.
4. I intend to earn the vote of everyone, including Black men.
Donald Trump

1. It should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by [the] National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military.
2. We're going to drill baby drill. We're going to have so much energy and we're going to bring prices down.
3. We love them. And because of them, we ended up with some great music, right?
4. Our poll numbers have gone through the roof with black and Hispanic [voters], have gone through the roof.

1. There's this perception that there has been this assault on masculinity and what that means.

1. They'd never want to get a beer with him, but they think he has the tools to lift them up economically.
2. There's many people in my community who are switching. Lots of people will vote for Trump, on economics alone.
Quenton Jordan
1. Inflation has pretty much made it impossible, or extremely challenging, for people to provide basic necessities for their families.
2. It's tangible things like that, that make people say [they] don't like the pressure I'm getting from the cost of goods. It's making it harder for me.
