Georgia was one of the states named by Plouffe where he feels the demographic influx of hispanics will make the POTUS permanently Democrat.
The problem for Democrats is that, nationally, Hispanic voter eligibility is very low, usually in the range of 40%-44%.
New Mexico has the highest eligibility, which I think is just over 50%.
The Census figures can be very misleading.
The Census counts “all persons present.”
Thus, they count Hispanic citizens AND those with Green Cards AND illegals.
But, there are still important consequences to the Census number.
When we have the next Census in 2020, the total population of a state or a Congressional District is NOT based on voting citizens - it is based on “all persons present.”
Thus, presidential electoral votes can change, and CD’s can change, because large numbers of non-citizens live there, including illegal immigrants.
