Dem State Rep Slurs Opponent, Demand Voters Vote Based On Race

This would likely be getting more media play if it was otherwise, but it's a story about a Detroit Democrat making racist remarks.

The Detroit News: Detroit legislator apologizes for racial slurs

State Rep. Bettie Cook Scott apologized in a statement issued Thursday after liberal advocacy group Progress Michigan revealed this week that Scott referred to state Rep. Stephanie Chang as a “ching-chong” and told voters at precincts during the Aug. 7 primary that she was disgusted “seeing Black people holding signs for these Asians and not supporting their own people."

Scott and Chang, both from Detroit, were two of six Democratic candidates running for state Senate District 1. Chang won the primary race with nearly 50 percent of the vote.

It also goes to show the racism of the Democrats and their unearned sense of entitlement that their constituents are expected to vote for them based on race.

If your best argument for someone to vote for you rather than your opponent is your skin color, you're doing it wrong and darn well deserve to lose.
