The answer is the same for Baltimore as it is for New Orleans. Demographics. When the majority race is the one committing the most crime it follows that they will not want or vote in judges who will lock up their relatives and babydaddies.

The majority doesnt want it, won’t vote for it and outnumbers those who do.
