This must be an error. The news media says republicans are all rich white racists who wear sheets over their heads and burn crosses. Would someone please check these results again because the news media is always right.

lesson...and not a new one really

generally speaking

whites will vote for a more conservative black candidate over a less conservative white one in GOP primary..or general..unfortunately there have been a dearth of them...those we thought were weren’t..

blacks will vote for a more liberal white candidate over a less liberal or conservative black candidate in the general election

i do not see this as a bellweather the way more right wing women are standing up but if this guy is a 95+ ACU righty then that is a big step of one.....all the rest have disappointed
