As I had predicted “post-race,” Latino voters gave Mayor-Elect some nice padding on her way to victory. As Campos reports on numbers provided by Hector at the County Clerk’s office:
Upper Income Anglo: Parker 63%, Locke 37%
Middle Income Anglo: AP 69, GL 31.
Mid Income African American: GL 83, AP 17.
Low Income African American: GL 88, AP 12.
Latino: AP 63, GL 37.
That’s about what internal numbers were predicting; of course, this is just a few precincts checked. I am sure there were some tighter precincts, and even council districts; nonetheless, as low as turnout was, this is still a good signal to the incoming Mayor that her consistent message was well-received.
