Black men drifted from Democrats toward Trump in record numbers, polls show
Source: NBC News
Eighty percent of Black men supported Joe Biden, down slightly from Hilary Clinton’s 82 percent in 2016 but significantly down from Barack Obama’s level of support among Black men in 2012 and 2008.
In Obama’s first presidential campaign, 95 percent of Black male voters and 96 percent of Black women chose him. Four years later, support from Black women remained at 96 percent for Obama’s 2012 re-election, while the figure for Black men slid to 87 percent.
In 2016, when the nominee was Hillary Clinton, Black men dropped further to 82 percent while Black women’s support for Clinton remained high at 94 percent. Biden came close to matching that this year, garnering the support of 91 percent of Black women.

I IDENTIFY as a card holding member of the HUMAN RACE. You know, as in Homo sapiens sapiens....
Hey, maybe they just didn't vote for either candidate? Or stayed home for a zero vote. This joker is an idiot.
...just as it is to make generalizations about a "white vote," when there are serious disparities between whites based on educational level, urban/suburban/rural, etc.
If you think about it, a lot of the "Latinx vote" is divided by country of origin. For example, the Latinx vote in Miami/Dade is predominantly those whose parents or grandparents emigrated from Cuba to escape Castro, plus well-off Nicaraguans who left during the Sandanista era, plus more-recently-arriving Venezuelans fleeing Chavez/Maduro. All those are likely to be conservative, and ready to vote against anyone who Republicans label "socialist," as they see any such candidate as potentially establishing an oppressive system like the one their family fled.
Throughout the rest of the country, most seem to come from Mexico, but, even there, there may be disparities between men (who may be coming from a "macho" mindset that respects a "strong leader"
and women (who have had to put up with that sort of machismo too much in their daily lives). And there's also a divide between those who are strict Roman Catholics (and who may have been getting told that it was their religious duty to vote for the anti-abortion candidate), and those who are more liberal in their religious beliefs. And, of course, there are the class divides that are common in every racial group. And so on.
The point is, it's a mistake to look at the Latinx community as a monolithic bloc that is going to vote in one direction. How that may apply to Black males as well is a matter beyond my expertise.
And you shall know them by their fruit-of-the-looms. 
Toxic masculinity is a major problem in this country and needs to be dealt with. And it's probably safe to say it's an equal opportunity affliction for all men. But as a male, and a white male to boot, I don't get it. I really don't. Just be human. How fucking hard is that? Geeezz!!! 
The libertarian candidate? 
If that turns out to be the numbers, then that's the numbers regardless of what we think of them.
... "Let's just burn this mother f***ing country to the ground! Seems like he's doing it!"
Fortunately, I'm one of Black Men that voted for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
But, it's troubling that a good portion of my "so called" Black brothers would vote for a Racist.
This needs to be address urgently!
I'm still trying to rap my brain around this. The black men in my family definitely vote Biden/Harris. I believe some of them were influenced by 2 cents and lil Wayne.
