The Dems haven’t really tried to go after Hispanic voters in any meaningful way. Bernie’s tactic of campaigning in Hispanic communities was pretty groundbreaking.
It is hilariously incompetent of Democrats to keep chasing idiotic midwestern racist morons while ignoring hispanics. Just atrocious.

If they could get up to 80% Hispanic support in Texas, the GOP would be done as a national party.

So much this. The dopey US media are great at conversing about this ofc.
Narrator: …
Spoiler alert: This would defeat the purpose of the Dem party. Why would they do that?
When analyzing the religious dimension of American politics, it is common to divide Protestant Christianity into mainline and evangelical. There are also fundamentalist and charismatic Christian denominations which are generally too small to analyze at a statistically significant level. It is also common to separate out black evangelical denominations from the evangelical category.
Within both mainline and evangelical Protestantism, the denominations range from conservative to liberal. The difference between these traditions is born out of history. American evangelical denominations grew out of the Great Awakening while mainline denominations pre-dated that period.
So, evangelical and mainline aren’t strictly theological definitions. If you were going to ask one question, you might ask if they are “born again”. As far as I understand, most evangelicals will say yes and a mainline Protestant will not.
hooray! promises KEPT!
We should keep the borders open because we’ll export more virus cases than we import.

You’d think suspending immigration would be the kind of thing you’d mention at the press conference…
Year on this poll? I would have lost a lot of money betting on the ELCA to be more reliably Democratic than the Roman Catholics. The ELCA is pro-gay to the point of being in favor of marriage and ordination, at worst chill on abortion, anti-gun, pro-social-services. They would seem to be even more in line with the Democratic party than the Episcopalians. Also, lol @ the LCMS crowd getting classified as Evangelical. Yeah, they’re super conservative, but they have very little in common with the other denominations named as Evangelical.
Thanks. That does help a little.
I probably should have prohibited “born again” as a question. Just seems like a synonym for Evangelical.
Nevertheless, let’s say they say they’re born again. If I ask “And what does born again mean”, what would they say?
