Eighty-six percent (86%) of Black voters favor the Black Lives Matter candidate. By a 53% to 29% margin, so do Hispanic voters. However, white voters, by a 47% to 32% margin, take the opposite view and prefer a Blue Lives Matter candidate.[1]

Most voters with a college degree prefer Black Lives Matter. Those without a degree favor Blue Lives Matter by a 45% to 34% margin.[1]

Men lean a bit in favor of Blue Lives Matter while women take the opposite view.[1]

Suburban voters are evenly divided.[1]
