Black Seniors Without Birth Records Could Be Disenfranchised by SAVE America Act – The USA Potato

The leftists are ignoring the real base again. Working class black and Latino voters are the party's heart, but leftists treat their loyalty as a given and ignore the people holding the coalition together.

The rural savior myth persists as leftists keep chasing white men to win over rural MAGA voters. They waste resources on a pipe dream instead of backing the population center minorities who actually keep the party in the game.

I opened this with a preconceived critique of the left's (and right's for that matter) fixation on numerically irrelevant Jewish voting data. And I was wrong. This is short, accurate, and shockingly not totally irrelevant.

Jacobin has one more article to publish before they hit their broken clock ceiling.

"Though Lange doesn’t say this, his analysis mirrors what we saw during the #Sanders campaign in 2016. Where many commentators focused on black versus #whitevoters, a few more far-sighted analysts noticed that an equally relevant, if not more relevant, factor in the Sanders versus #Hillary #Clinton split among #Democratic voters was not #race but #age. Younger #blackvoters were breaking for Sanders, while older black #voters went for Clinton.

That turns out to have been not a one-off among black voters but a major portent of what’s been going on among Democrats and the #Left. We’re seeing a similar phenomenon in the #Jewish community today..."

The Generational Split Within Jewish Voters on Zohran Mamdani

If you take a closer look at the data, the generational differences within Jewish New York voters’ embrace of Zohran Mamdani looks a lot like the generational differences within black voters’ embrace of Bernie Sanders in 2016.

The Supreme Court Asks Why It Shouldn’t Gut the Voting Rights Act

We may well see the elimination of the 11 Black-majority districts — all Democratic — in GOP-controlled Southern states.

“This win corrects a historic injustice,”said Ari Savitzky, a snr staff attorney at the #ACLU #VotingRights Project. “All Mississippians will benefit from fair district lines that give #BlackVoters an #equal voice—& new generations of #BlackLeaders an equal chance to help shape the state’s future by serving on the state’s highest court.”

The lawsuit, filed April 25, 2022, argued the map diminished the #Black vote in the Central District.

"The takeover of DC is no more about crime than his takeover of Los Angeles was about migrant caravans. It’s all about going through the motions of the racist purge that he has dog-whistled and foghorned and winky-winked at his followers ever since his first rant about Mexico 'sending' rapists."

Black and Latino voters are big losers from proposed Texas redistricting map, senior House Democrat says

Republican state lawmakers argue their proposed congressional redistricting map would create Latino opportunity districts. But state Rep. Vince Perez (D-El Paso) counters that the map is drawn to leave Latino residents with one-third the voting power of whites. For Blacks, he says it would be one-fifth.
