I worked in local government in the Democrat dominated Bay Area for 11 years. It became quite apparent to me early-on that hiring decisions in most cases were driven by racialism as much, if not more than, by competence and experience. I pity anyone living in a Democrat-dominated state or town, since the provision of quality public services has taken a backseat to diversity as the primary objective of governance.

I work in Chicago (there is no way in hell I would ever LIVE in Chicago; I live in the western 'burbs). What you say is 100% correct.
