can't figure out where the 'dilution' is? anyone more knowledgeable than me on this?
lol what the fuck, I thought this was going to be one of those things where people complain about affirmative action when actual voter suppression occurs, but they literally say
Eastpointe's black voters consistently vote for black city council and school board candidates, however none of them have ever been elected, the lawsuit contends.
A review of elections shows "the black population of Eastpointe is politically cohesive and that the white population votes sufficiently as a bloc to usually defeat the preferred candidate of black voters," the lawsuit argues.
Can't wait until the current DOJ gets purged.
EDIT: Holy shit, the black population of the city changed from 4.7% black to to 29.5% black between the two most recent censuses? What the fuck is happening there? Moreover, the DOJ is going to make a case about black candidates never being elected, when they've been a sizeable percentage for barely more than a single decade? Fuck Obama's and Lynch's stupid race-baiting cunt faces.
