8. Also, when you look at that poll, they have no breakdown for age when it comes to blacks.
So, we don't know if younger black people voted for or against. It could be generational, but we don't know.

Latinos between the ages of 30-44 voted 60% in favor of 8.

There isn't even any data on how black men voted in that exit poll.

Having said all of that, denying rights for a minority shouldn't be put on a ballot for the majority to vote on. The votes will almost always go against the minority group. That's why the courts have to be involved.
