Not a single Black voter in a new poll expressed support for Donald Trump.
A statewide survey of 600 Michigan voters conducted for WDIV/Detroit News between Monday and Wednesday found zero support for Trump among Black voters, while 82.1 percent of those voters backed Vice President Kamala Harris and 11.5 percent backed independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
It's not clear how many Black voters were included in the sample, although Newsweek noted that number would likely be fewer than 100 since Black people make up 14 percent of the state's population.

Other polls have shown Trump's modest gains among Black voters evaporated after President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed the vice president, whose parents are immigrants from India and Jamaica.
Harris has already secured enough support from Democratic delegates as of Monday evening, just over a day after Biden dropped out, to become the party's presumptive nominee.
A CNN poll conducted earlier this week found Harris had the support of 78 percent of Black voters, compared to 15 percent for Trump, compared to a previous poll of that same sample group that found 23 percent support for Trump and 73 percent for Biden.
Another survey, conducted by the thinktank Black Futures Lab, found 71 percent of Black Americans trust Harris while only 5 percent support the former president.
That poll of 211,219 Black people in all 50 states is the largest known survey of Black Americans since the Reconstruction era, and respondents said their tops three concerns were low wages, at 38 percent, gun violence, at 33 percent, and failing schools, at 31 percent.
Nearly all respondents, 97 percent, wished that college could be made more affordable, while 95 percent wanted minimum wage to be increased to $15 an hour, and 94 percent said they wanted government aid expanded to help small businesses and improve access to affordable housing.
“There’s this narrative in the media, and amongst folks that attack Black people, that Black folks just want handouts – and that’s further from the truth,” said the group’s principal, Kristin Powell. “What Black people want is the support that they’re investing in. If we’re giving tax dollars to this country, we want to get paid back.”
