Blacks are the most reliably Democrat, but wondering how those born in Caribbean or Sub Saharan Africa voted?  Looking at areas with large Haitian communities in South Florida, seems went quite massively Democrat, likely north of 80%.  But wondering if they voted as heavily Democrat as African-Americans.  If so, that would mean they would be most heavily Democrat immigrant group.  Cubans, Venezuelans, Vietnamese and maybe Russians probably best for Trump amongst foreign born.

We know Biden won the Black vote big, but wondering what his support was like amongst Sub-Saharan African immigrants and West Indian.  Florida has a very high number of latter.  I am guessing he won both, but Trump probably did better than he did amongst African-Americans.  Anybody have any data on this?

I know Biden won big amongst Blacks overall, but wondering if West Indian and Sub-Saharan African communities vote as heavily Democrat as African-Americans do?  My guess is Biden won them, but not by as big a margin.  Any guess on what percentage Trump got amongst both.  I am guessing probably around 25%, but just a wild guess.  For West Indian, New York City is biggest for Jamaican while for Haitians it is Miami and would be interested results in heavily Haitian neighborhoods.  For Sub-Saharan African very broad, but I believe Minneapolis has a large Somali community which pretty sure went massively for Biden, while Washington DC, NOVA, Boston and others have a sizeable number.  Seattle also has sizeable Somali community down around SeaTac which ironically was the part of King County where Trump was strongest [this is completely untrue, 45 did much better in Auburn], but Biden still won big time.  Any thoughts?

If I had to guess, foreign-born blacks were around as D as Asians overall. Significantly more R than old-school African Americans (and with a larger number of economic and/or social conservatives), but still went for Biden by between 2:1 to 3:1.

They are Jamaicans and Haitian ancestors aside from African, they vote for Cuomo, there is a huge Jamaican community in NY that vote for Cuomo. Also a creole Community as well. Charlie Rangle isn't AA, he is Haitian

Alot of AA ancestors are Nigerian due to slavery and Cameroon, but AA that don't have English last name are Cree or Jamaican

Everyone thinks African when they think black, but look at Milli Vanilli, Regee

If I were to take a guess, Nigerians are probably the most politically conservative Black immigrant group (but still overwhelmingly D, of course).
