to the recent wave of protests against police brutality, has led to an explosion of political participation among Black voters, many of whom, like Powell, sat out the 2016 election.
Winfrey said the ballot applications point to"very hearty turnout" that could also preview voting enthusiasm in November. In the 2018 midterm election, Black turnout in Wayne County, where Detroit is located, rose sharply compared to the previous midterm election, in 2014 — from 38 percent to 54 percent.
By 'dip' you do mean all the shady Gerrymandering, voter suppression and every other trick they use because if they went by Popular vote we'd never have another Republican President... Right?
suziepgk it was a fucking dip, it was purging. 200k black voters were purged from the roll in '16. add suppression. fuck.
Black Americans aren't your property. They can do what they want and think how they want. They are INDIVIDUALS! Imagine such a thing if you can, which i doubt!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Leave us alone. We're not your savior
That's a racist comment
HNTurtledove Huh. Not because of a surge of white racists voting?
That's because they're truly woke. They're voting Trump, more than 30% of black Americans... some polls say 40% ... ;)

Go Michigan and vote November change! Save our country
SweetExoticAng1 No tangibles, No vote! cutthecheck ReparationsNow for the descendants of American slaves!!!!!
Trump has certainly given Americans a greater awareness of political science & civics. Not only at the presidential level, but all the way to local community levels. Americans r witnessing how every politician, at every level, is handling this crisis & remembering their names.
still , emphasis on race----black against white---shame on you NBC---
mynbc15 Maybe BLACK VOTERS helped put him in office🤔
If you are black and are too busy to vote You are the gashole. You will get what you ask for.
When Trump ran for President in 2016, he asked: What do you have to lose? Answer: Everything. He’ll take it all.
SweetExoticAng1 🤷🏿♂️😐No Tangibles No Vote No Kidding
Walk away. Don't let your city become Chicago.

President Trump has a lot of silent supporters in Michigan.
We have to vote like our lives depend on it, because they do.
Really, if you can't take a few hours out of one day every four years, you've given up your right to complain
CandiceLanier Hopefully black voters who see that they need President Trump after what Democrats have done to their city and state!!?
For Trump in Black voters
Don't worry blacks will ensure they get out the vote to get the most racist prez ever out of office.
Ain't gonna happen. Biden is less inspiring than Hillary was...
Because Joe told 'em he'd revoke their Black Cards if they didn't vote for him.
The media's get out the democrat vote efforts are already racial. They are playing their last card already and there's 3 months to go.
Call me crazy but looks like we need to vote like hell to save our country from the idiot in the WH. This whole “reality star President” thing was “fun” and all but I’d rather get back to normalcy and have a president who isn’t obsessed with people who like him or not.
Interesting. My take is that Trump won Michigan because a bunch of racist white people voted for him...🤷🏾♂️
no one that cares about American values will vote for a democrat this cycle. The Dems have shown Americans what they have in store for them and America is responding by buying guns and ammunition.
The dip in voters didnt help Trump win. The electoral college did.
ZimbabweanLivesMatter
IAmSophiaNelson I see a surge in voter suppression coming.
Michigan will vote JoeBiden 2020.
Uhmm wasn’t it also a incline in White votes that went for Trump in Michigan and other key battleground states
Maria_Hinojosa There you all go again in Corporate Media trying to blame black voters for 2016!
Black voters in Michigan did nothing to 'help Trump win,' any more than they helped Hitler in 1939. White people did everything. Trump's election was the will of White American people. U broke it. U buy it. Last chance White patriots.
In 2016 - only 53% of Eligible Voters ... VOTED. In 2018 - only 40% of Eligible Voters ... VOTED. The ONLY way AMERICA *gets* what she NEEDs ... is for many MANY MORE Citizen showing-up to VOTE ... Every . Single . Time.
And then there's Trump's threatened fed surge into Detroit and concerns he'll attempt interference at polls.
