CID Research Series: The New Electorate - The Strength of the Latino, Black and Asian-American Vote

New Release!

CID’s new battleground state research briefs provide an up-to-date profile of Latino, Asian-American and Black voting power in swing states and highly contested states. These briefs examine the changing demographic landscape in each state, the participation of Latino, Asian-American and Black eligible voters in the 2020 general election, and identify the potential electoral influence voters of color could have in each state on national and local elections in 2024.

NATIONAL REPORT

Earlier this year, CID issued a national report on voter turnout. The New Electorate: The Strength of the Latino, Black and Asian-American Vote report revealed that in the 2020 presidential election, Asian-American, Black, and Latino eligible voters comprised nearly 30% of those eligible to vote in the U.S., but represented just over 22% of all votes cast, significantly lower than their share of eligible voters. The report found this entrenched voter representation gap evident across nearly all U.S. elections.

Future reports in this series will include an analysis of the impact and opportunity of the Latino, Black and Asian-American vote in 2024 competitive congressional districts.
