Brutal New Poll Shows Biden Losing Support Among Every Group of Americans – But Especially Independents and Hispanics

Hispanic voters are running away from Democrats as fast as they can. Joe Biden and the Democrats seem to be puzzled about why Hispanic voters are moving away from their party in droves, but the reasons could not be clearer. They support the Republican agenda of smaller government, capitalism and secure borders. And they reject the Democrats' agenda of big government, socialism and open borders. If Joe Biden and the Democrats want to know why Hispanic voters are leaving their party, they should look in the mirror.

Earlier this year the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) released a Hispanic Battleground Survey. The poll found that Hispanic voters largely reject the pillars of the Democrats. As the Hispanic share of the electorate has increased over the last three presidential election cycles, Democrats' margin of victory among Hispanic voters has decreased. Hispanic voters are becoming Republican. It's happening right now, and there is no stopping it. This isn't something we are hoping for, this is something that is in process.

As FiveThirtyEight reports:

Over his first nine months in office, President Biden has lost support among Americans of all stripes — men and women, Black voters and white voters, Zoomers and Baby Boomers. Even Democrats writ large are more disenchanted. But two groups with whom Biden has lost support stand out: independents and Hispanics. Independents have soured on Biden to the extent that his approval ratings among this group approach the strongly negative ratings they gave then-President Donald Trump at the same point in his presidency, while increased disapproval of Biden among Hispanics could signal they are moving further away from Democrats after they shifted somewhat toward Trump and the GOP last November.

Recent polling suggests that Hispanic approval of Biden's handling of the pandemic and the economy has fallen sharply. The latest poll from The Economist/YouGov found just 45 percent of Hispanics approved of Biden's handling of the pandemic, compared with 65 percent in early June. And Politico/Morning Consult's new survey found Hispanic approval of Biden's handling of the economy has dropped to 42 percent, compared with 60 percent back in June. Hispanics are also frustrated with how Biden has dealt with immigration — long one of Biden's weakest issues in the public's eyes — and although it isn't the most important issue for Hispanic voters, it is often a highly salient one. Earlier this month, Quinnipiac University found that only 23 percent of Hispanic Americans approved of Biden's work on immigration, down from 49 percent in late May. Even if that might be on the low end for Biden, the new Politico/Morning Consult survey also found him performing more poorly on the issue among Hispanic voters, as just 40 percent approved, compared with 51 percent in June.

Biden has lost ground among almost every single demographic group over the past few months, but independents and Hispanics stick out as two key groups where Biden's standing has especially faltered. For Democrats looking ahead to the 2022 midterms, Biden's overall approval rating is concerning enough, but if Biden is struggling to win independents and Hispanics, that could snuff out any hope Democrats have of holding either chamber of Congress. After all, independents backed Democrats in the 2018 midterms and Biden last November, and even though Republicans made gains with Hispanics in places like Texas's Rio Grande Valley, Hispanics still largely backed Biden and helped him win in key swing states, like Arizona. But if Republicans can capitalize on Biden's weakness among these groups, that could be their ticket back to controlling Congress next year.
