Texas poised to become a swing state maybe by 2016

This is simple math, Bill Clinton style.

• Latinos are 30% of the Texas voting population and we know they support Democrats (70% voted for Obama in the 2012 election)
• African Americans are 12% of the Texas voting population and we know they also support Democrats (93% voted for Obama in the 2012 election)
• Obama still got 41% of the vote in Texas even though the Democratic Party has not invested serious resources in Texas for a while

But before you jump the gun and conclude that the 41% Obama got in 2012 was precisely the 30% Latino plus 12% African American I mentioned above, consider that

• Just over 2 million eligible Hispanics did not vote

And this is just Hispanics.

• Add to that all other democrats who just don't bother because they believe Texas is still a reliable red state (blacks, women, young, Liberal whites. And yes, there are a lot of Liberal whites in Texas) and you get the picture

Texas is ripe for blue harvesting. It is a matter now of resources to start organizing.
