HRC Group - A quick X-post

http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511432279

I posted this last night in GD: P

Here is an excerpt:

4) Sanders has not done well in states with high African American/Black populations. Sanders' eight victories have come in states with an average (mean) (per Kaiser Family Foundation statistics) of 3.75%, with a range high of 7% (OK) and low of 1% (several states). Clinton states have an average African American/Black population of 18.09%, with a range high of 31% (two states) and a range low of 3% (Iowa). If this proves to be a statistically accurate indicator, it would tend to predict Clinton victories in the upcoming primaries in Mississippi, Michigan, North Carolina, Florida, Illinois, Ohio, and Missouri. Why this has been happening is an interesting question that I suspect Political Scientists will study for a decade.


While my post is not all good news for Hillary, statistics indicate to me that we should be pretty encouraged about the next 10 days.

unless you're a Democrat.

If you are a Democrat, you absolutely need the "poor ghetto" vote to win!
