You two above me way underestimate Texas.

As a native Texan, I have complete faith that Texas could elect an African-American. It would just entertaining, in a very sad, sad way, to see what sort of alliances and support developed in a Hispanic Democrat vs. Black Republican race.

You're right

I Imagine it would be Hispanics and Liberals (Austin) Vs. Suburbanites, Blacks, and a large percentage of normal Republican voters.



It could get nasty, but I still think Republican Williams would win easily, perhaps even more than normal.

And... if you don't think Williams would win the black vote, go ahead and look up he and Wallace Jefferson's election results in Democrat areas (both are black Republicans)

[The Man From G.O.P.]

You think he could win the black democratic vote?

He does.


I don't want to stray into this territory too much.... but he does win the black vote...

[The Man From G.O.P.]

Yeah.. just checked, often wins over 50% in Houston and Dallas inner city, and wins the normal 65-78% range in the rural areas where Republicans dominate.


One good example Wallace Jefferson, the black Republican Chief Justice of the Texas Supreme Court, ran against a Libertarian only, and tended to get 88%+ statewide.

 
What I'm trying to point out is, he wins big in Republican areas, and either wins or loses close in the inner city, there's a lot of black name recognition, and he wins every bit of it.

On the other hand, rural Republicans may vote for Williams straight ticket, not knowing his race. But from personal experience, I've found most rural Texans to e very well read on their politicians (often dreadfully so).
