Black Voters Propelled Blue Wave, Study Finds

African-Americans increasingly associate GOP with Trump, racist rhetoric

Democratic wins in the 2018 midterms were driven largely by African American voters — particularly black women — who increasingly associate the GOP with President Trump’s perceived hostility toward people of color and immigrants, according to an analysis released Monday.

The report by the NAACP, the racial justice nonprofit Advancement Project, and the political action group African American Research Collaborative found that across competitive elections 90 percent of black voters supported Democratic House candidates, compared to 53 percent of voters overall. It also found 91 percent of black women, 86 percent of black men and 50 percent of white voters believe Trump and the GOP are using toxic rhetoric to divide the nation.

“This poll dispels the myth of black voter apathy,” said Judith Browne Dianis, Advancement Project executive director. “Clearly black voters are not only engaged, but they are central to the resistance against Trumpism.”

I’ll kick back, and watch for a real source on this one. Roll Call is low on my list of credible sources.

Perception is reality.

Perception is a Media creation.

That’s it...

Perceived hostility? How about lame stream foisted lies on that subject?

When blue states and areas are really in that sort of serious financial and economic trouble in that they can no longer pay for entitlements and other goodies, it is not going to be particularly pleasant for those sorts of people who depend on those sorts of things because of that mentality that associates Trump and the GOP with racist rhetoric.

It is bullshiite. Sadly, blacks will be taken in by the deception once again.

Blacks are racist. It’s just that simple. Does anyone doubt that if 90% of whites all voted for Republicans, every screeching head in this country would call for the virtual execution of all whites? 97% of blacks voted for Abrams. That is flat-out racism.

They mean black people who are helped by leftists to vote without their knowledge. Blacks vote overwhelmingly dem and that will always be the case, but sky rocketing their numbers without a black on the ballot? Voter fraud.

I can understand that seeing how well the Democrats have treated blacks since Lincoln’s time you know like slavery, Jim Crow, KKK and segregation to name a few.

As far as anyone needs to read.

Gee, really?

So how did Mia Love just get screwed in Salt Lake by a white male named McAdams?

“New votes” were “just found” for him yesterday, so Ta-Da! The counting stops.

The Rat Fraud machine is what accounts for the non-existent “Blue Wave”. They have pushed the envelope on what is acceptable as a ballot or a voter to the point where they can game the system just enough AFTER the voting stops and manufacture JUST ENOUGH to win by a point or so, whatever looks “convincing”.

And besides - if they stay home, we "vote" them, anyway.
