How can this be if leftists claimed that Republicans prevented Blacks from voting. Are leftists admitting voting fraud? Thoughts? |

My thoughts are that you're not a very intelligent person. I say this because for your challenge to have meaning, 100% of the black residents in Alabama would have had to be registered to vote and 98% would have then had to vote for Doug Jones. But that's hardly true. There are those who aren't eligible to vote for one reason or another, perhaps they're too young or perhaps they've recently moved to Alabama. Of those that are eligible, some percentage still aren't registered, sometimes because they can't register to vote because of road blocks put in their way by the Alabama legislature. And of those who do manage to register, a certain percentage simply didn't vote at all. So, 98% of blacks did not vote for Doug Jones. 98% of blacks who are registered voters and decided to vote in the special election, voted for Doug Jones. And that is probably closer to 20% or 30% of black Alabama residents than 98% of all black Alabama residents. |

Roy Moore lost because he was a pathetic candidate that was propped up by the Alt-Right and the Trump crowd. Seeing as the Trumpians only amount to about 30% of the overall electorate, expect to see more defeats in 2018.

Ok, then how can a small percentage of Blacks who are able to vote propelled Jones to victory? Let's say Republicans only allowed 30 out of 100 eligible Blacks to vote. That number was not enough for Jones victory. |

That has nothing to do with my question. How can there be record Black voters turnout if Republicans are suppressing the Black votes? |

Lower total but high percentage couldn't delivery a victory for Jones. How can 2 or 3 Black voters out of 10 deliver for Jones? |

Are you really this dense? God, I hope not. 100% of blacks are not eligible to vote. Of those blacks that are eligible, 100% are not registered. Out of those that registered, 100% did not vote. Therefore when you subtract the percentage of blacks who aren't eligible to vote, who aren't registered to vote, and those who did not vote, you have a much smaller percentage than 98% of ALL blacks having voted for Doug Jones. What exactly that percentage might actually be, I can't say with certainty. But it simply a complete fallacy to claim that 98% "of blacks", meaning ALL BLACKS, voted for Doug Jones.

Imagine if 99% of white folks had voted for a Republican. What would the headline of USA Today and New York Times be? I know, this is too difficult and abstract a thought for Leftists to process. To them, it is only natural that racial classes vote on party lines, unless the race is Caucasian. But don't Leftists also mock Alabama for their high welfare rate? Remember all the times they attack southerners for being poor. Well guess what, those are the racial minorities who vote 99% along party lines for Communists who promise them free handouts. Leftists are very racially hateful. They spit at southern states for taking free handouts, yet manipulate those same folks into being mired in poverty. Like I always say, Leftists love the sin but hate the sinner. |

I don't remember the last time Tsal ever replied to something I actually said. All he does is personal attacks. How many forms of handouts do you get from the taxpayers, Tsal? |

Let's give you the benefit of the doubt for a second, if the number of eligible Black voters who actually voted, were so low, how can they deliver the victory for Jones when Republicans prevented them from voting? |

The problem isn't with the black voters, it's with the Republican party who offers black voters nothing but denigration and animosity. Blacks don't vote for Democrats in huge percentages because they're enslaved by the Democrats or delusional, they vote for Democrats because while the Democrats may not do a whole lot to help them, at least they're not actively working to harm them, unlike Republicans. Every time a Republican stands up and talks about welfare reform they know that those leaders expect their white constituency to assume they mean "blacks only". Every time a Republican stands up and talks about being "tough on crime", blacks know those leaders expect their white constituency to assume "more blacks will go to jail." And when those Republicans stand up and talk about "greater self reliance", the black community knows that those leaders expect their constituency to read "by blacks" into it. Blacks aren't stupid. They know the Republican leadership is constantly using them to rally the Republican constituency, even if they don't always succeed, or even try in many cases, to follow through on what they say. Blacks still know that if the hard core Republican constituency every really get their way, it's going to be very bad for blacks. |

How is the quality of life for Blacks in Chicago, Baltimore, and Detroit. Three cities run by Democrats for a combined total of 150 years? |

OH Gods...you whine worse then my grandchildren.....and I did reply, both wilmy and op educated you and Drudge quite sufficiently to have you posts shredded, now personally, I would have preferred Epsilon Dao school you two...now...he...he could do in style, and make you look like children when he did it. Where is this handouts coming from? In answer to your leading question, none. What were you going to insinuate I got handouts from? |
