But in 2012, black voters made up 13 percent of the electorate; in 2016, they comprised just 10 percent of the electorate.

In terms of raw votes, that means roughly 130,000 fewer African-Americans voted in Pennsylvania in 2016 than voted in 2012. If those voters had shown up on Tuesday, that alone would've been enough for Clinton to hold Pennsylvania by a razor-thin margin.

Michigan and PA flip if black turnout was same as 2012.

if same as 2008, pa, michigan, and wisc all stay blue.

two things - 2020 nominee cannot be a non-black. and neither can dnc chair.

You are an idiot. The current dnc chair is black, how did that work out? It should be someone who has shown an ability to turn purple states blue, regardless of color.

Jeff - ellison should NOT get it unless he agrees to step down from his seat in congress.

This is not a part time job.

DWS wasn't required to step down. If Ellison thinks he can do both jobs, he should be allowed.

And she did a shitty job. When it was a full time job, Howard Dean, the 50 state strategy was very successful. I wouldn'tthe mind see Dean do it again, or whomever is the mastermind behind Reid's machine in Nevada.

Howard Dean is a joke. Still.

No basis for that. He won back Congress and several states as DNC chair. The 50 state strategy was a success, look what abandoning it got us.

I can't even say his name with a straight face.

Whatever weird personal hang up you have with Dean hardly disqualifies him.

purple states in the midwest have enough blacks to that if they turned out in 2008 levels, would've netted 300+ evs.

BBW Donna is a not progressive.

A progressive black like van jones is perfect

Keith would be fine if he can give up his house seat

Jeff -- a little off topic but what do you know about how Trump and Schumer get along

I can't tell you specifically anymore, but I lived in NYC and had a friend who's family was very well connected to NY politics. At that time, Schemer and Trump got a long VERY well. But no surprise for two reasons. Schemer gets along with everyone (he's a very nice personable guy) and everyone loved Trump.

Now? Who knows. Their relationship was one of political and practical convenience as much as anything, so if that value disintegrated . . . .

Schumer does not get along with real progressives. We know what he is and who he is.
