Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: While a great deal of research has examined the attitude of white voters toward black candidates, political scientists have neglected to explore black voters� beliefs and attitudes toward political candidates outside of their group and, for that matter, the intra-group conflict that exists among blacks in electoral politics. Furthermore, previous studies have rarely examined the role of the racial identity of the black electorate in shaping political behavior. The experimental results indicate that: 1) black respondents are more likely to support a black candidate than a white candidate, and are more likely to perceive the black candidate as more trustworthy, a stronger leader, and more willing to identify with their concerns than the white candidate; and 2) variations in black racial identity make a difference in how black respondents perceive a candidate. This research has revealed that in electoral politics, perceptions of candidates can depend not only on the messages one receives from political campaigns, but also on the pre-existing sentiments of those making the decisions.
