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.

    What makes you think the dems “deserving” the votes has absolutely anything to do with this? LGBQT+ people be trying to exist and you’re asking them if Biden “deserves” their vote?

      You really think the Dems are going to accept this support and think, “Gee, we should really do something to protect LGBQT+ folk, like… maybe not reaching across the aisle to the people that will gladly perpetrate mass-murder on them” huh?

      If you do, I have a bridge to sell you.
