If you read the methodology of most polls they all over sample African Americans. They do this because they say African Americans vote in a larger percentage in relation to their percentage of the population.

African Americans make up about 12% of the population but most polls sample them at about 22%.

African Americans make up 12% of the live population but amount to 20+% of the vote, because being good democrats, they vote several times and continue to do so well after death. Thus a rational basis for oversampling.

They sample them 10% higher than 12% population because ACORN seems to be able to find a few bus loads of them not doing anything on election day!

Why is that? Is voting the ONLY thing they are good at? Voting 24/7 won’t find them a job!

Yeah, many of them vote several times. Detroit and Philadelphia have precincts (mostly black) where voter turnout numbers are frequently 125% and higher.

Are you sure about this? Not saying you are wrong. It's just not what previous information I have seen shows. Please cite some evidence. Thanks.
