When Minorities Become the Majority

[DonViejo]

Pew Research: “From 2000 to 2013, 78 counties in 19 states, from California to Kansas to North Carolina, flipped from majority white to counties where no single racial or ethnic group is a majority, according to a new Pew Research Center analysis of Census Bureau data.”

1. People go about their lives. Here in CA we are very

diversified. It is what helps us stay a Democratic state were common sense reins unlike some red states.

White people are not pulling their hair out and running around bemoaning their loss of majority.
I live in Santa Barbara county where we won't have to change the place names which are mostly in Spanish.

2. I see what you are saying. My county will still be run by the white population in it. The question

is will those areas in the states where it does make a difference even be enough to turn the state blue? Actually my county doesn't count in this because we are already blue and will most likely stay that way.

According to this map the fear of losing white control is unfounded. But then fear is never reasonable.
