Hughes, Boyd-Cora, Scott, Francis, and Kyles Must Be Treated Fairly by the Harris County Democratic Party on Super Tuesday
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
All of this infighting between white male incumbent judges and their Black female challengers is causing a rift in the Harris County Democratic Party that won't easily be fixed by Tuesday, November 5, 2024, if it continues any longer.
In case you haven't heard, there's already an "EXODUS AMONG BLACK MALES" who are parting ways with the Democratic Party in cities all over America.
According to a national poll of likely Black voters in swing states, former president and GOP front-runner (Donald Trump) could have between 14 percent and 30 percent of the Black vote share as Super Tuesday. Remember, Trump only had about 8 percent of the Black vote share back during the 2020 Presidential Election.
That being said, if Trump's appeal amongst Black voters continues to rise, he could win more Black votes than any Republican in history. You can "CLICK HERE" to learn more about this trend by reading an article that appeared in Newsweek a few days ago entitled, "Donald Trump Poised to Win More Black Votes Than Any Republican in History," for yourself.

"LATINO EXODUS."
Trouble is also on the horizon for Biden and company when it comes to Hispanics, as "A NEW POLL" shows that, "Biden's support in America's most Hispanic state declines dramatically," according to published reports.
"CLOSING THOUGHTS."
As it stands right now, there are roughly (20) twenty key contested races on the upcoming Tuesday, March 5, 2024, Harris County Republican Party Primary ballot. So, many Republican judicial candidates are sitting back with popcorn and iced tea, watching the Harris County Democratic Party implode. How can I say this?
Right now, Democrats have a firm grip on city and county government in these parts of Texas. However, there are nearly (50) fifty contested races on the upcoming Tuesday, March 5, 2023, Harris County Democratic Party Primary ballot.

THE INCONVENIENT TRUTH ABOUT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
DR. CAROL SWAIN
When you think about racial equality and civil rights, which political party comes to mind? The Republicans? Or, the Democrats? Most people would probably say the Democrats. But this answer is incorrect.
Since its founding in 1829, the Democratic Party has fought against every major civil rights initiative and has a long history of discrimination.
The Democratic Party defended slavery, started the Civil War, opposed Reconstruction, founded the Ku Klux Klan, imposed segregation, perpetrated lynchings, and fought against the Civil Rights Acts of the 1950s and 1960s.
In contrast, the Republican Party was founded in 1854 as an anti-slavery party. Its mission was to stop the spread of slavery into the new western territories to abolish it entirely. This effort, however, was dealt a major blow by the Supreme Court. In the 1857 case Dred Scott v. Sandford, the court ruled that slaves weren’t citizens; they were property. The seven justices who voted in favor of slavery? All Democrats. The two justices who dissented? Both Republicans.
The slavery question was, of course, ultimately resolved by a bloody civil war. The commander-in-chief during that war was the first Republican President, Abraham Lincoln – the man who freed the slaves.
Six days after the Confederate army surrendered, John Wilkes Booth, a Democrat, assassinated President Lincoln. Lincoln’s vice president, a Democrat named Andrew Johnson, assumed the presidency. But Johnson adamantly opposed Lincoln’s plan to integrate the newly freed slaves into the South’s economic and social order.
Johnson and the Democratic Party were unified in their opposition to the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery; the 14th Amendment, which gave blacks citizenship; and the 15th Amendment, which gave blacks the vote. All three passed only because of universal Republican support.
During the era of Reconstruction, federal troops stationed in the South helped secure rights for the newly freed slaves. Hundreds of black men were elected to southern state legislatures as Republicans, and 22 black Republicans served in the US Congress by 1900. The Democrats did not elect a black man to Congress until 1935.
But after Reconstruction ended, when the federal troops went home, Democrats roared back into power in the South. They quickly reestablished white supremacy across the region with measures like black codes – laws that restricted the ability of blacks to own property and run businesses. And they imposed poll taxes and literacy tests, used to subvert the black citizen’s right to vote.
And how was all of this enforced? By terror -- much of it instigated by the Ku Klux Klan, founded by a Democrat, Nathan Bedford Forrest.
As historian Eric Foner - himself a Democrat - notes:
“In effect, the Klan was a military force serving the interests of the Democratic Party.”
President Woodrow Wilson, a Democrat, shared many views with the Klan. He re-segregated many federal agencies, and even screened the first movie ever played at the White House - the racist film “The Birth of a Nation,” originally entitled “The Clansman.”
A few decades later, the only serious congressional opposition to the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 came from Democrats.
Eighty percent of Republicans in Congress supported the bill. Less than 70 percent of Democrats did. Democratic senators filibustered the bill for 75 days until Republicans mustered the few extra votes needed to break the logjam.
And when all of their efforts to enslave blacks, keep them enslaved, and then keep them from voting had failed, the Democrats came up with a new strategy: If black people are going to vote, they might as well vote for Democrats. As President Lyndon Johnson was purported to have said about the Civil Rights Act, “I’ll have them n*****s voting Democrat for two hundred years.”
So now, the Democratic Party prospers on the votes of the very people it has spent much of its history oppressing.
Democrats falsely claim that the Republican Party is the villain when in reality it’s the failed policies of the Democratic Party that have kept blacks down. Massive government welfare has decimated the black family. Opposition to school choice has kept them trapped in failing schools. Politically correct policing has left black neighborhoods defenseless against violent crime.
So, when you think about racial equality and civil rights, which political party should come to mind?
