Bishop represents a district that votes for ‘Rats most of the time, but Republicans occasionally win elections there. This time, a credible Republican has announced his candidacy.
The district is like 45% black. Bishop is the only black rat who’s district is not majoirty black and who until recently has not voted like a moonbat (ACU lifetime rating 32% last 2 years 4%).
The combination of conservative rural whites and blacks and the differing turnout of the 2 groups produces a seat that narrowly voted for Gore, Kerry and Obama.
This is an ideal seat for black Republican to try for as Dylan Glenn did.
