POLITICS - Interesting political statistics

Post by Mike D. »

This tidbit was sent by a friend and is interesting in that it demonstrates a certain trend, one that certainly is in effect nowadays as well.
Who says votes don't get results? :(

What do the top ten cities with the highest poverty rate
all have in
common?

Detroit, MI (1st on the poverty rate list) hasn't
elected a Republican
mayor since 1961;

Buffalo, NY (2nd) hasn't elected one since 1954;

Cincinnati, OH (3rd)...since 1984;

Cleveland, OH (4th)...since 1989;

Miami, FL (5th) has never had a Republican mayor;

St. Louis, MO (6th)....since 1949;

El Paso, TX (7th) has never had a Republican mayor;

Milwaukee, WI (8th)...since 1908;

Philadelphia, PA (9th)...since 1952;

Newark, NJ(10th)...since 1907.

Einstein once said, 'The definition of insanity is
doing the same thing
over and over again and expecting different results.'

It is the disadvantaged who habitually elect Democrats ---
yet are still
disadvantaged.

The same thing happens over here, makes you wonder if certain politicians want to keep large numbers of voters disadvantaged.

There's a song over here with the same tune as the "Red Flag" some of the words are, "The working class can kiss my A** I've got the foreman's job at last!

Which roughly means they won't be voting socialist anymore!

Do the same thing with Violent Crime and you will find essentially the same result... except that Chicago will be included as well..
C2N14... because life is not energetic enough.

If you look at results from the public schools in those towns, there is yet another correlation... :(

We should all do well to remember this.
