@SteveNegusMasr@Kronykal@HistoryBoomer Democrats tend to be highly educated, republicans more working class. Highly educated areas tend to have lower homicide rates, this has nothing to do with governance. What has actually been shown though is that electing a Republican DA reduces homicides. https://t.co/bVaqvTbJEz
@OriginalBad@mattyglesias In D+60 Los Angeles, sure. For the rest of the country she’s much more in touch than Matty and the left. Hell, even if the election was all of LA county and not just LA proper, Pratt would would have finished first. But there just aren’t enough moderates/cons in LA proper
@BCLegalScholar@ProfDBernstein Something like 60% of Jews will vote D no matter how anti Israel the Dems are. But GOP going from 20% to 40% is a big deal
@BCLegalScholar@ProfDBernstein This isn’t true. There are a lot of Jews in Philly and Pittsburgh suburbs actually. Nevada, Michigan, Georgia, and Arizona also all have decent sized Jewish populations. Bigger issue is that Jews don’t just vote en masse on Israel; if they did, Ds would be more scared
