As long as Travis Allen doesn't ruin our chances

2018-05-06 21:25:41 UTC  

Doubt

2018-05-06 21:25:48 UTC  

I think we should get behind him, actually

2018-05-06 21:25:48 UTC  

The demographics are a nightmare

2018-05-06 21:26:01 UTC  

White Evangelicals are only 2 out 10 of the California Electorate

2018-05-06 21:26:02 UTC  

John Cox is the only one who can carry california

2018-05-06 21:26:24 UTC  

To me, Allen seems stronger, I don't know.

2018-05-06 21:26:26 UTC  

Whites are barely 5 out of 10 of the electorate

2018-05-06 21:26:34 UTC  

So even if Cox wins 100% of the White vote,

2018-05-06 21:26:43 UTC  

he'll need to pick up some Asians or Hispanics

2018-05-06 21:26:50 UTC  

CA primaries are going to be the most monumental of these elections

2018-05-06 21:26:52 UTC  

Some asian groups are republican leaning

2018-05-06 21:26:55 UTC  

Like Viets

2018-05-06 21:27:00 UTC  

That's iffy

2018-05-06 21:27:02 UTC  

Nope

2018-05-06 21:27:06 UTC  

Not anymore

2018-05-06 21:27:09 UTC  

In presidential years, definitely not

2018-05-06 21:27:11 UTC  

I thought they were?

2018-05-06 21:27:19 UTC  

Only in the suburbs of New Orleans, sure

2018-05-06 21:27:20 UTC  

But in midterms they may pull through

2018-05-06 21:27:36 UTC  

Asians voted +1 for Republicans in 2014

2018-05-06 21:27:39 UTC  

They did (barely, but they still did) pull through in 2014

2018-05-06 21:27:44 UTC  

But that was because Obama

2018-05-06 21:27:51 UTC  

Yeah, Asians went like 89% Clinton.

2018-05-06 21:27:55 UTC  

Even stronger than blacks.

2018-05-06 21:27:57 UTC  

I was surprised.

2018-05-06 21:28:02 UTC  

Advertising in asian languages would seriously help

2018-05-06 21:28:04 UTC  

That's not true

2018-05-06 21:28:07 UTC  

It was 65%

2018-05-06 21:28:23 UTC  

Clinton advertised in at least 6 different ones

2018-05-06 21:29:11 UTC  

If we had advertised in Chinese, Tagalog, Hindi, Viet, Korean and Japanese we would have cut those margins

2018-05-06 21:29:18 UTC  

I think if Allen or Cox campaigned in asian languages they'd just call him racist

2018-05-06 21:29:28 UTC  

Not really

2018-05-06 21:29:32 UTC  

"We can speak English too"

2018-05-06 21:29:43 UTC  

Cox tried to appeal to Hispanics in the debate and he got booed by the crowd

2018-05-06 21:29:44 UTC  

Lots of asians (especially older ones) struggle with english

2018-05-06 21:29:48 UTC  

or outright don't speak it

2018-05-06 21:29:54 UTC  

In advertising

2018-05-06 21:29:59 UTC  

Not in debates

2018-05-06 21:30:02 UTC  

The asians in CA are more urban and cosmopolitan
