The NAACP plans to spend $20 million encouraging Black Americans, a critical voting bloc in the presidential race, to turn out to vote across 12 states this fall.
The NAACP’s campaign is not geared toward benefiting specific candidates, but rather is designed to broadly mobilize and educate Black voters ahead of the 2024 election.
The group plans to engage more than 14.5 million Black voters.
While Black voters traditionally overwhelmingly support Democrats, the margin of victory and turnout levels among the group can make a major difference.
By comparison, exit polls across those same states showed President Joe Biden won 89% of Black voters, compared with 9% for Trump.
