How young black voters could break Biden — and why Democrats are worried
Police brutality has spurred young African Americans to take to the streets. But it's far from clear they'll go to the polls.

Biden’s record — including collaborating with segregationists in the Senate and sponsoring the 1994 federal crime bill — emerged as a stumbling block during the primaries. Bernie Sanders, not Biden, won swaths of young voters and “there are subsets of the younger population that … continue to be a challenge” for Biden, said Ben Tulchin, who worked as Sanders’ main pollster.
Someone pointed out to me that it was actually the black leaders who were begging Joe Biden to pass this crime bill. Kamala Harris is old enough to remember this so she knew that it was an unfair attack on Joe Biden. Kamala Harris is going to have to throw herself under the bus and admit to being dishonest about that crime bill in order for Joe Biden to get back those black voters he lost during the primary.
