Why did you single out Mesquite instead of saying Dallas?

Anyways, Dallas, Houston, & San Antonio vote blue, but I wouldn't consider them Liberal cities if I was comparing them to Austin.
From what I've been told Mesquite is a very liberal when it comes to their elected officials and city councils. The further left you are the better. Beto is up by 10 points there so that has to mean something. Dallas really isn't a city I would consider liberal or to the left, just more moderate.

:patrice: You sure breh? I just went to the official website of the city of Mesquite & this is their city council despite the fact that the population of Mesquite is racially diverse (26% Black, 38.1% Latino of any race, & 33.1% Non-Hispanic White according to the 2016 Census estimates):

The city of Dallas got them beat when it to diversity of the City Council: City of Dallas Government






There are 28 million people in Texas. Is it supposed to be surprising that Trump can attract 0.2% of them for a big rally?

Trump only got 50% of the vote in Texas, but that's still damn near 5,000,000 votes. Of course he can throw together a big rally.

This defeatist crap claiming that Republicans own Texas is just stupid and doesn't help anyone. Texas is down to just 45% White and dropping and every other ethnic group votes against Republicans. I don't know which election it will be, maybe this one, maybe next one, but a Democrat will win statewide office in Texas again. Anyone who knows the slightest history knows that no state stays owned, ever.

:snoop: What Democrats and people like you don't realize is that Hispanics are voting for Republicans by a higher percentage each election. Even with his white supremacist rhetoric, Trump got a higher percentage of the Hispanic vote than Mitt Rombey. Here in South Texas many Mexican American citizens vited for Trump to keep illegal Mexicans out. That's what Ted Cruz entire political career represents, Hispanics siding with GOP once they gain acceptance. From the looks of things alot of you are gonna be in for a big surprise come November.
:mjlol: People really forget/ignore the fact that most Latinos mark "White" as their race on the U.S. census & on other government forms. I guess they ain't trying to hear the facts of this thread: https://www.thecoli.com/threads/hispanic-voters-were-supposed-to-be-the-dnc-party’s-future-it’s-not-working-out-that-way.666607/

The "facts" of that thread? The OP was about Latino voter turnout being poor, and then a bunch of people made up a bunch of dumb crap on their own that had nothing to do with facts. I responded in that thread days ago:


"Can someone explain to me what the point of this thread is?

If I had only read the comments, I would think that Hispanics are voting 90% Republican. But the article in the OP said that only 27-29% of Hispanics are voting Republican. And that number would be even lower if there wasn't such poor turnout among young Latinos. I swear that @Robbie3000 was damn near the only commenter who noticed that.

Hell, what percentage of Black men voted for Trump, like 12% or 15% or something? 29% is closer to 15% than to 50%.

Even when a Latino Republican is running against a White Democrat, Latinos prefer the Democrat. In Texas right now, polls show Latinos favoring O'Rouke 62% to 35%. And some of ya'all actually wanna claim that Texas Latinos are majority conservative?

The huge majority of Hispanics are voting Democratic. And that turned into a Hispanic-bashing thread because...?"



"Also, people tried to claim that the Florida Latino vote is conservative. But that's not true outside of Cubans, and even Cubans are damn near split.

FT_16.11.15_CubanVoters.png



So only 54% of Cubans in Florida voted for Trump, and only 26% of non-Cuban Latinos in Florida voted for Trump. That means for all Latinos, they were 35% for Trump and 62% for Clinton. That's damn near 2-to-1. There might be some conservative pockets, like "rich Columbians" or whatever. But Latinos overall are a pretty strong Democratic voting base. They just don't turn out in very high numbers."

Nah, he's talking about the Beyonce Davis who runs a Whataburger in El Campo, Texas.

Have better odds of Booker T becoming Mayor of Houston than Beyonce running for any sort of political office

How you know about El Campo:russ:

Like when. Don't give me no police brutality? All a white man gotta do is say, I support Kaep or do a Kappa Shimmy and ya'll liberal negros start buck dancing like Roland. Where is his plan for Black people specifically? Where is his Black agenda?

First of all I'm not a "liberal negro" and never proclaimed myself as such, so keep your personal insults to yourself.

Second of all, if you've been paying attention to him these past several months, he's been taking up for Black Men especially when it.comss to police brutality. I guess you didn't see the last debate about a week ago?

Third of all, ya'll are looking for a Malcolm Xesque candidate to roll through that's not going to happen anything soon. Anybody not afraid to discuss racism is a start.

I am not voting for a white supremacist. That should tell you my answer. Ask Lokesh, he knows who I am voting for. He dapped my post when I said it

If Cruz gets re-elected, people like you are to blame. Now isn't the time for your pie in the sky militance. Help turn Texas blue.

I 100% doubt it. A lot more white supremacists in Texas. He is just pandering for votes
He popped out of the blue. No one Black outside of politics heard of this guy before. He is just putting on a show. Just because negros like you can't see it with blind affiliation, doesn't mean we of us don't. If he lost by one vote, idgaf. :ehh: bill Clinton did this to negros in the 80s but at least he played the saxophone. This dirty dude is just talking in code not directly saying shyt. Ain't shyt changing with his votes in DC. Nothing

I endorse Jealous, Delgado and Gillum. fukk the rest
