African American

Russians have been trying the bullshit on African-Americans since the 1930s. We should have been in the Soviet Union in droves by at least the early '50s or during the Cold War. But few of us fell for the crazy notion of replacing one oppressor for another.

I'm surprised this article did not cite gerrymandering, placing restrictions on early voting, or requiring specific forms of voter identification. But blame the Russians for low black turnout instead of the long tradition of anti-black voting suppression by country itself.

From what Pew reported our turnout fell 1% while the white voters turned fell by 0.4%.
