We lost (some of) the black men, the Hispanics, the youth and the first time voters.

40. Those two demographics jump out at me, too.

Also, the Asian vote seems to have shifted pretty significantly toward Trump.

I have theories... the youth vote is influenced very strongly by their experience of the economy and sense of not being able to keep up. (The reasons for this are all the fault of Republicans, infuriatingly.) They're online and listen to podcasts. Very easy to influence this group through social media, because they feel disenfranchised- and they are, thanks to decades of GOP policies going back to Reagan.

Hispanic vote - this is an area where Democrats may have really messed up. Hispanics are not a cohesive bloc. Many of them have been Americans for generations and Trump's rhetoric about illegal immigrants resonates with them. Trump called Harris a communist. That scares people fleeing many Latin American countries. Many Americans ignore Latino culture in the U.S. and it keeps biting us. Democrats need to vastly improve outreach to all the major Latino groups. They're different and they have different motivations.

Asian vote - many Asian Americans are quite conservative, socially and politically.

The fact is, Democrats have welcomed people from all over the world, often fighting against Republican xenophobia to champion immigration - and now that they're citizens, many of these folks are becoming Republicans!
