Black Women More Likely Than Any Other Demographic to See Crime as ‘Very Serious Problem’
Black women are more likely than any other demographic to see crime as a “very serious problem,” according to a new poll.
The GQR and Vera Action survey, published on Tuesday, found that 79 percent of black women say that crime is a very serious problem.
Overall, the pollsters found that 92 percent of voters in surveys of both national and battleground states say crime is a serious problem, including 57 percent who say it is a “very serious” problem.
“Concerns about public safety are even more pronounced among women, Black voters and older voters. Women are 6 points more likely to say that crime is a very serious problem than men,” the pollsters report.
