I have a hard time believing that Black voters would leave the DP, unless there is a third party. Most vote and the GOP is significantly less attractive to Blacks. Maybe fewer would vote, but those who continued to do so would likely go for the DP, following standard lesser of two evils logic. Would Black voters go to the right? it depends on what "right" means. In some ways, the "left" is defined as urban, pro-welfare state, pro-public education, etc. It's hard to see Blacks abandoning that. -- J _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
