Re: 'Snaketivity' Display Set Up at Michigan Capitol Draws Supporters, Opponents
My whole point was to debunk the theory of blacks swaying the entire vote, as the conservatives tend to hint at. The 10% increase in black voter turnout in 2008 didn't have much effect on the numbers that have been pretty consistent. With only 13% of the population a 10 percent increase is only a maximum of 1.3% of the overall turnout. |

Re: 'Snaketivity' Display Set Up at Michigan Capitol Draws Supporters, Opponents
It's a claim conservatives make all the time, and it's untrue. Vrist seemed to have that mindset, and I wanted to show him the actual numbers. I'm also fairly certain I could find posts you've made stating that exact thing. |
