“Dialogue” on the state of Black voters ahead of the 2026 Midterm Election
We are less than a month away from the November 3, 2026 Midterm election. Black voters overwhelmingly supported Kamala Harris' presidential run in 2024. Meanwhile, Donald Trump is a deeply unpopular president according to polls. So how are they feeling two years later? Are they feeling taken for granted by the Democratic party? Did the Republican party overestimate its gains with Black male voters? How do Black voters feel about the rise of Democratic Socialists? “Dialogue” talks with two Illinois based political professors.Latest News
