About Me

Alexandria Davis is an Assistant Professor at Virginia Commonwealth University in the Department of Political Science. Her research observes political behavior and public opinion of marginalized communities. Broadly, her research interests include racial and ethnic politics, Black political behavior, political psychology, intersectionality, and voting. 

Her ongoing book project will provide a profile of Black political behavior and partisanship in recent Presidential elections. Alexandria seeks to conceptualize a novel measure of racial group apathy to explain growing non-voting and the Black electorate's distinct relationship with the Democratic Party. 

Alexandria's research has been supported by the National Science Foundation, the American Political Science Association, the UCLA Ralph J Bunche Center, and UCLA’s Race and Ethnicity in Politics and Society Lab.
