Ray,

My point is that as the South became less Democratic and more Republican, racial segregation and income disparity decreased (more than other regions). The same point can be made in much of the Country as well. The Republican dominated metro areas of the West Coast tend to have less segregation and less income disparity, than Democratic dominated metros.

If you want to look at the complaint of 90,000 voters sticken from the rolls, o.k. The article stated that just over half the 90,000 were Black or Hispanic. Well, the majority of white (non jewish, non hispanic) voters vote Republican. In Florida, the majority of Hispanics are Cuban, who also vote Republican. The question is, would the African Americans offset the Whites and Cubans. I don't know.
