Black GOP congressional candidate predicts ‘big red wave’ among minority voters
The Hill ^ | 11/08/2022 | CHEYANNE M. DANIELS

Texas congressional candidate Wesley Hunt (R) believes the economy and inflation will lead to a “big red wave, particularly when it comes to Black and Brown people” this midterm season.

Speaking to NBC’s Zinhle Essamuah on Sunday, Hunt said Black excellence is needed everywhere and that Black Republicans can bring change to the Black community.

“At least we’re in the room to at least add some color, if you will,” said Hunt, who is favored to win his race in a new Texas district.

A record 178 Black candidates are running this year as Republicans. Though Black voters make up a large voting bloc for Democrats, Republicans in recent years have been expanding their messaging to communities of color.

One reason the rats have doubled down on cheating. Can’t rely on the plantation like they used to.

Democrats on January 19: you can’t blame government for the failure of cities like Detroit.

Democrats on January 21: Republicans have failed us and minority communities!

George Logan in the CT-5 is good, a fiscal conservative, moderate on social issue. Better than Hayes. The fifth district had the only blacks elected to Congress and it is mostly made up of small towns and small cities.

as soon as even ... 40% of blacks wake up to the FACT that liberals don’t have any ideas that will help them... it’s over for liberal/socialists in America forever.

The 20% of socialists have managed to trick blacks for decades and in the process pushed their socialist agenda on everyone with black support.

Most repubs are thrilled we have more and more diversity in candidates and folks articulating the conservative message, with fire and passion, recognizing we are in a fight.

I don’t doubt that after Obama wasted eight years only to endorse Biden and more failed policies, MLK and other influential minority leaders would be MAGA supporters today.

We have black female pro-life conservative Jennifer-Ruth Green running in IN-1, which has been a safe Democrat seat for ninety years. RCP lists the race as a toss-up, and this is the first time in my memory that the GOP has run a competitive race. I am guessing that might reflect some considerable black support.

Biden’s final speech before calling a “LID” today was to BLACK VOTERS

I'll believe it when I see it.

A conservative candidate (who happens to be black) is running for Congress in my district. But, she's not the Republican candidate. She's running as an Independent. She is an example that black voters can be very conservative. Will she win? No. Most likely, the Republican candidate won't win, either. The Dem will win again.

Hey ... what about my post seems to have made you think I’m opposed to them?

My post is about the lying hypocrites of the DNC and how their message may shift dramatically depending on who is in power.

Democrats are going to be really pissed if their slaves leave the plantation. Last time that happened, they started a civil war.
