"Clinton needed extremely strong support from African-American voters to try to offset Trump’s margin among whites. She did win 88 percent of the black vote to just 8 percent for Trump."

"Trump claimed 29 percent of the Hispanic vote on Tuesday compared to Romney's 27 percent in 2012. With blacks, exit polls show Trump claimed 8 percent of the vote to the previous Republican nominee's 6 percent."

You may be correct. The numbers vary by source currently.

Edit:
However the trend of Black voters should still be concerning to Democrats.

"Clinton needed extremely strong support from African-American voters to try to offset Trump’s margin among whites. She did win 88 percent of the black vote to just 8 percent for Trump. However, this was significantly lower than the 93 percent of black voters Mr. Obama won four years ago."

That has more to do with Hillary not being Black rather than a trend imo.

I agree with that to some degree. However.... more broadly... it was to due with Hillary being a terrible candidate. Bernie would have gotten higher black support based on polling.

I don't know,I'm confused at how confused democrat voters are.Talking to black voters when I was volunteering they say the same you stated,they support Bernie more and wish he was the nominee. In the primaries though they overwhelming supported Hillary and Blacks are probably the main reason she got the nomination.Democrats are even more confused about Obama.They overwhelming say they approve of his job as president but most of these same people who said they weren't voting was because of Obamacare , they don't want another centrist / wall street democrat like Obama and Hillary or they wanted Bernie who is much different than Obama on democrat policy :confused:
