And of those voters, it isn't a 100% votes for democrats. SHeesh.. the author of the original article comes off as he author of the original article comes off as uneducated.
and no... I do consider myself a democrat.
"the author of the original article comes off as uneducated.", YET you did NOT show ANY facts to dispute the article, instead attacked his "education"!
We will make up our OWN minds on who is "uneducated."
Who do you think we will come off as "comes off as uneducated."?
In 2015, the majority of murder and non-negligent
manslaughter occurred in the south (46%). The lowest
proportion of all murder and non-negligent manslaughter
occurred in the northeast (12%).A
it would be as erroneous to make a conclusion that the majority of murderers in this country are from Southerners....
Then even more erroneous to stretch that and conclude most are Republicans. Also erroneous to assume that most racists are Republicans.
I would bet most criminals in general could care less about politics.
Correlation does not necessarily mean causation. You can find and make stats to back almost any bias view. It is the underlying research that determines causation.
Thanks for your post that links to an ultre right hate blog. All the cockroaches seem to be crawling out of the cracks this morning. Blech!

Well if Trump said he could shoot some one in the middle of 5th ave. and not lose any support. And they agree, he's their leader, does that mean they are capable of doing the same thing to support him.

Some cannot recognize satire!
This is the thing. If you're a murderer, there is no voting. You can't vote if you're doing life in prison. And so what if Democrats want felons to vote? Once you've done your time in prison, you should go back to society, and that includes voting. And if Republicans want votes, then they should be on board with letting felons vote once they get out of prison.
"You can't vote if you're doing life in prison."
Does NOT mean the dems are NOT tryig to allow it!
"Sanders faces heat for saying people should be able to vote from prison"
"A questioner at a CNN town hall Monday night asked the presidential candidate whether he believes that incarcerated felons — the Boston Marathon bomber, for instance, or sex offenders — should be allowed to vote while they are serving their sentences. Sanders’s answer: an unapologetic “yes.”
“I think the right to vote is inherent to our democracy — yes, even for terrible people — because once you start chipping away … you’re running down a slippery slope,” Sanders said. “I do believe that even if they are in jail paying their price to society, that should not take away their inherent American right to participate in our democracy.”
Not all murderers get life in prison. Many do 10-20 years and hit the streets again.
"Many do 10-20 years and hit the streets again"
WAY TO MANY are repeat offenders!
