These polls have been all over the place. I still think that Hillary takes Ohio (due to proletarian white folks) and Texas (thanks to Hispanics).
Do you know if these are “all or nothing” states?
I disagree. Because of the way delegates are apportioned, the black vote in the Texas primary is actually more significant than the Hispanic vote, regardless of turnout, and regardless of the fact that Hispanics significantly outnumber blacks in Texas. If Obama wins Austin, Houston and Dallas, he can afford to lose San Antonio and the Rio Grande Valley and still win a majority of the delegates.
Interesting question about the Hispanic vote in Texas —
There is strong and viscious animosity between inner city blacks and hispanics, which will help Hillary in some areas.
However, I’m wondering if the racial angle will work for her in south Texas, where, outside of Houston, hispanics overwhelmingly outnumber blacks. In a community that is almost 100% hispanic, like the Valley, I don’t know if those racial tensions exist.
Anybody on here with first-hand knowledge?
There's nobody left in Ohio to vote.
They are all on the golf course next to my house!
I do enjoy wearing my LSU and Florida caps this time of year.
No, they haven’t.
This is the first Texas poll in a year.
Clinton has been getting beat by double digits among actual Hispanic voters. Firing her Hispanic manager has hurt her bad. Plus, Obama is getting most of the high profile Hispanic endorsements in Texas.
