Black voters’ enthusiasm for President Joe Biden has weakened since he took office, according to a recent poll. The Washington Post/Ipsos poll sampled responses from nearly 1,250 black Americans between April 21 and May 2, 2022, and has a +/- 3.5% margin of error. Black voters propelled Biden to the White House. Black voters shared major concerns about Biden’s handling of police and criminal justice system reform, with 6% believing President Biden has done “a great deal” to reduce alleged discrimination against black Americans in criminal justice systems. As a presidential candidate, 26% of black voters believed that Biden would “greatly reduce” such discrimination in June 2020.
