Officials say there's still time, but the concern comes as Biden sees softening support among voters of color.
Officials say there’s still time, but the concern comes as Biden sees softening support among voters of color.
“It raises a red flag in my judgment,” she said in a follow-up interview with POLITICO about the delegate plans. “And then I try to find out what the hell is it.” While their work is done largely away from the televised production of the nominating convention, delegates also function as a pipeline for the party to help recruit and maintain relationships with its most active members. At a time when Democrats are seeking to showcase their diversity as a calling card and a main point of differentiation with Republicans, the inability to hit their own diversity metrics could hamper those relationships.
Democratic strategist Donna Brazile says there is still time to rectify the delegates' diversity figures among the handful of states that she's noticed a slide. | Chip Somodevilla/Getty Imageslast month found Biden’s support in the low 70s or 80s among Black voters — a drop from the 91 percent who voted for him in 2020. His numbers with Hispanic voters are worse. In the 2020 election, Biden enjoyed a 28-point margin with Hispanic voters.
“With Hispanics, the target jumped … thanks to the 2020 census,” said Morley Winograd, a 1980s-era chair of the DNC committee that oversees these plans. Winograd now lives in Los Angeles. “But in that case, it looks like so far the [state] party has not been successful in meeting that higher target.”
California Democrats expressed confidence in their delegate proposal and “look forward to final approval of our plan that meets or exceeds DNC requirements,” said California Democratic Party spokesperson Shery Yang in a statement.
