Two Google searches is all it would have taken for you to not look like... well, like you usually do. https://news.uga.edu/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Incarceration_Map-01.jpg 20% of the adult African-America population in Florida had a felony conviction in 2010. https://www.cnn.com/election/2018/exit-polls/florida/senate 90% of black voters in Florida voted for Nelson. 86% went for Gillum. I'm not even going to bother looking up census data to estimate how many additional votes for Nelson and Gillum those felons would have represented, because it doesn't matter. Jakyl is right and you are wrong. Again. Oh yeah? https://www.vox.com/the-big-idea/2018/11/2/18049510/felon-voting-rights-amendment-4-florida I mean I know it is nice to just assume any black person is your pocket vote for your candidate but not the case. The vast majority of ex-felons don't even vote. It was estimated a 48k net gain for democrats with a couple tens of thousands unaffiliated which could go either way. Sure would 48k flip those races? Sure. Barely. But, it was also a midterm and not a presidential race so those numbers would have likely been even further down. Maybe use actual numbers instead of just acting like 90% of the black population automatically votes for you instead of understanding the percentage of people who even votes. --- LoL ID = imajericho XBL GT = Corrik <cite>Corrik posted [p:912336485] in Politics C...
