You wouldn’t need to capture large numbers of black Americans. First, for Obama’s last election 66% of black eligible voters voted. That’s a record high, but as a percent of the electorate they’re down below 20%. So if you just took one in seven away, you’d see many urban elections swing away from Democrats for statewide races.
