In the race to succeed Juanita McDonald, the Democratic primary was won by Laura Richardson, who is slightly less liberal than the runner up. That’s probably why we didn’t hear much about it.
I believe Richardson’s primary opponent was Hispanic. Richardson is black. This is one of those districts which has long been held by blacks but the growing Hispanic population is threatening their hold on it. Looks like the blacks managed to hold on to it this time, but just as there will likely never again be a black (or white) mayor of L.A., blacks will eventually lose this district.
We think our leadership is out of touch, but think about blacks. They’re being displaced faster than anyone by the illegal invasion, yet every single member of the black caucus in Congress is 100% pro-amnesty and pro-open borders. It’ll be interesting to see how Richardson votes once she takes her seat.
Terry Anderson would be a great congressman but the black power structure wouldn’t back him and he’d have no chance running as a Republican.
I thought the Latina that lost was slightly less liberal than Richardson. Both were fairly leftist, but the Latina voted down that ridiculous bill to demand compulsory fixing of pets (sorry, Bob Barker, I love you, but this shouldn’t be mandated by law).
