"Burges is part of a growing number of Black parents who are homeschooling their children-for a number of reasons"
We don't know how the Black parents that homeschool vote. There really are a lot less of them than this story leads us to believe. The numbers are growing across the board for homeschoolers so it should be true among Black parents as well.
My guess is that there are only thousands of Black parents that homeschool. This voting block is miniscule now and they may be voting Republican for all we know.

I don't blame Black folks for homeschooling and wish more would. I try to support the few I know who do, especially those who are single parents.

Well lets hope they influence others and vote for conservatives. Notice I don't necessarily label them Republicans. I sure wouldn't vote for a Demoncrat but some third party people who are conservative do get my attention from time to time.

"one of my friends who is black and has never voted repub we talk about stuff like this frequently and I truly think he has no idea why he votes dem he just does and will continue to it's just instilled in them it's actually quite frustrating."
I've run into that too. It's like a family tradition or something. Hopefully they'll wake up!
