The Advocate reported that this year's presidential election may actually come down to queer voters.
Polling data shows that Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are tied in four swing states: Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
The thinking goes, if higher turnout among LGBTQ+ voters in these swing states could deliver the race for Harris, then lower turnout could secure Trump's victory.
Historical trends, demographic data and current affairs all point toward LGBTQ+ voters playing a potentially decisive role in tipping these swing states to Harris. Yet, according to a September survey conducted with the HRC, there are surprising signs that Harris may underperform with queer voters with 20% of respondents being undecided, planning to stay home or backing a third party. Even though only 8% of respondents were leaning toward Trump, those disaffected LGBTQ+ Democrats could cause serious problems for Harris. Bottom line: drum roll please... make a plan to VOTE!!!!
