The EC is a problem? .... sounds like Democrats want to overturn the Constitution --- but we already knew that.

Can the GOP attract black voters? Here's how Republican governors do it.
https://www.vox.com/2016/8/1/12338538/gop-attract-black-voters

Donald Trump easily outpaced John Kasich on the way to the Republican presidential nomination, and the two men continued to feud bitterly as Trump celebrated his victory at the Republican convention, awkwardly held in the state where Kasich is governor. But there’s one area in which Kasich runs circles around Trump: support among black voters.

In a recent NBC/WSJ/Marist poll, Trump pulled off the notable accomplishment of attracting zero percent of the black vote in Ohio (yes, zero). In contrast, Kasich managed to receive 26 percent of the black vote (including fully 33 percent of the votes of black men) in his successful 2014 gubernatorial reelection bid.

Trump’s remarkable unpopularity among African Americans surely is connected to his divisive rhetoric, but the gap between the two men on this score also reflects a difference in the way black Americans view Republican governors and national Republican candidates.

Republican governors routinely outperform their national peers in attracting black voters
Admittedly the Kasich numbers are anomalous for Republican candidates at all levels of government, but they are more common in gubernatorial elections than in presidential contests. Before him, there was Ohio Gov. George Voinovich, who won 42 percent of the black vote following his popular tenure as the mayor of Cleveland, a majority-minority city. More recently, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie — who has since cozied up to Trump — won 21 percent of the black vote in his 2013 reelection win.

There’s more: In her losing bid for governor of California, in 2010, Meg Whitman received 21 of the black vote; in 1998, then-Texas-Gov. George Bush and Arkansas' Mike Huckabee received 27 percent and 48 percent, respectively (although the latter figure is often disputed due to the exit poll’s small sample size). Other Republicans who have fared well with black voters include Scott Walker (Wisconsin), Jeb Bush (Florida), Tom Ridge (Pennsylvania), Mitch Daniels (Indiana), and Charlie Crist (Florida).

The answer is no, not nationally. State by state district by district, yes. But the overarching anti minority message of the Republican Party is much too obnoxious to make significant gains.
 
You don't seem to understand logic. You just wish to live in your bubble view.

I told you quite a few times already... when we do have access to the the GDP breakdown in other units... for instance states and counties... we know the top counties and state have a massive govt component.

Hence I am saying before you all go bragging about your super productive rich blue sectors we should pull out govt spending and investment.

Besides other contributors have shown you the poor are democrats and as you go up in income you become more republican.

If we were to get that breakdown it would probably show that the top privately created GDP areas surround Wall Street, Silicon Valley and Microsoft. Some of those cronies and their workers are lefties because they want drones in their factories and cheap foreign labor in their IP shops. Put those areas in the blue column.

However I have seen some of L.A.'s top GDP areas are actually massive govt handout areas also. So that would be an interesting breakdown. I think we would wind up putting those top districts in the handouts and contractors column... but hollywood could swing it your way.

The D.C. area is the the handout and contractor column.

So what is left to determine is New Yorks ratio of private GDP to govt handouts and contracting.

How do you know those districts aren’t unreasonably populated by space aliens? Do you have a genetic breakdown of the population or am I just asking irrelevant questions that cannot be answered because ahem is a ducking moron?

Yet, the worst states like California, New York, Michigan, Illinois are run by Democrats. Nothing mentioned about the huge deficits they continue to run up and even rich liberals leaving those states for other more tax friendly states? If it is so good for liberals, why the hell are they even moving? "Do as I say, not as I do." Hell, even George Clooney left France with his family because he said it was not safe after migrants camped near his chateau? Why didn't he let those poor migrants into his home? After all, he had armed bodyguards protecting him?
