Then take 40% of the % that voted over the total % of black people. Shit I forgot to take out all the white people that voted LOL, anyway it sure does look like 95% are voting just because he is black but it comes out to less then 10% of the people I bet. No I am not a black guy lol

Take blacks. Lets say 50% of them are democrat lovers, 50% of them are republicans.
When you see 95% voting democrat and 5% republican that means 45% of them switched sides from republican to democrat because of race. So no, its not 10%, its 45%.
45% racists recorded here.

No we need hypothetical situation where black candidate would be republican and would need to see how many would switch from being democrat to republican and add it to that 45% already recorded above. Assume it would be same 45%, we have 90%.

So AT VERY LEAST 45% to the assumed 90% if we assume that 95% of blacks would vote republican if next black candidate were republican.

ps: percentage points were used where they were due (just noting that in case somebody does not understand simple numbers)
pps: also 50/50 was used for easier counting, do not argue if that is 55/45 or 51/49 or whatever. You well know its not the point.
