Mississippi 2003

A very regrettable situation. People's vote should be decided by economic and other considerations not race. Hopefully things are changing slowly- too slowly though!

Btw I would also like to know the breakdown of the vote on not just race but other factors like income, sex, religious affiliation etc. if anyone has them.

I came across these figures regarding the topic discussed above if anyone is interested.

Barbour captured 77 percent of the
white vote, which makes up 65 percent of the state's electorate.
Musgrove won 94 percent of the African-American vote, which represents
33 percent of the state's voters.
