At the end of the day, almost half will have voted for Moore, if Doug Jones ends up winning. Honestly there is an opportunity here if Doug Jones does win...he should work on creating an environment for more minorities to relocate to Alabama. And by Alabama I mean, the cities. Make sure that white Evangelists never again have a say in how the state conducts his business.

I've read numerous times that those states deep in the South are just barely not competitive for Democrats because they have a reliable 40-45 percent of the vote in each state, and it's pretty much all black.

Really, instead of moving out of those states, it might be worth strategically attracting more black people to Alabama and Mississippi and Georgia and registering them to vote. Hillary was banking on this in 2016, actually, and she was competitive in GA, but her plan was probably four years too early to work.

You can increase the black population all you want, but if they throw all our black asses into one or two districts then we don't have any power over state decisions.

9k race now :ohhh::ohhh:

Black women came through. Damn. Respect to the sisters.

edit: 5-6k race only. :ohhh:

No shock. If you let only black women vote and hold office, this country might actually get on the right track.

That's no shot at black men; we'd be better off with more black people in power generally, but black women are tireless in trying to get things right through voting.

seems like the remaining votes are the cities (rural areas are pretty much counted) - and its now Jones' to lose. he's in striking distance.
He’s going to cover in Madison and Jefferson is going to take him to the winners circle.

Let's not act like 5% isn't still an incredibly low percentage.

There are always going to be c00ns :yeshrug: but there's absolutely no reason for black people to be blaming each other for this shyt, let's not even entertain that narrative. Don't fall for deflection tactics.
Oh I know.

My saying is that the percentage of c00ns since 1619 has always been a steady 5% of our population.

That would hurt black representation in the House, but the whole state votes for senators and governors. Imagine a black governor accepting the Medicare expansion instead of some self-righteous white dude who doesn't give a shyt about sick people rejecting it.
