And after crunching the numbers, the organization sees warning signs in the form of soft support for Biden in the 2024 electorate.

HRC estimates that this year there will be 75 million “equality voters” — who vote based on support for LGBTQ rights — up from 62 million in 2020 and 52 million in 2016. But the group says one-third of them aren’t a lock for Biden. In the six key swing states, hundreds of thousands are “at risk of not voting,” and another group of hundreds of thousands of voters are what HRC refers to as “double doubters” who will likely defect to a third party, according to data HRC shared with NBC News.

    You’re literally called “Human Rights Campaign” and you’re campaigning for someone who is supporting a genocide this minute with weapons. Shameless.

      The choice is:

      • Support candidate that is tacitly okay with genocide
      • Support candidate that is enthusiastic about genocide and stripping away LGBTQ rights
      • Say nothing and let the second candidate operate unimpeded by your opposition in key states

      I mean… come on, let’s be reasonable.

        That is not how it works.

        It is: “Who wants to get the vote must uphold human rights.” The fact that Biden rather wants Trump to win, than to do that should tell you everything about how his second term and the DNC will be after him. Once they think it will gain them some votes from the Republicans, they will start to crack down on LGBT too.

          This only makes sense if the people who think like you reach a critical mass, which they have not and very likely never will.

            And that is because of people like in this article paying a lot of money and working their lobbies very hard, to not have it happen. You are being propagandized with the same “us vs. them” bullshit, that the Reps pulled in 2016 to get Trump elected. 2024 Dem supporters sound scarily similar to 2016 Reps.

        If he’s okay with genocide over there then he’s okay with it here. I get that HRC is trying to do damage control but this is evidence that Democrats will turn on marginalized groups the very second they think it benefits them.

          That is a gigantic jump but go off

            It has to do with how someone values human life. They may not find a genocide here convenient or may not have the correct people in place, but they’re okay with doing one if they thought they needed to.
