Shifting Demographics in the Electorate
We talked about gerrymandering in the house polarizing the political leanings of those electing their representatives, but who is voting is also changing… • White populations will decrease drastically by the
year 2030, from 71.6 percent to 46.3 percent, • Latino populations will increase significantly from
11.3 percent to 30.3 percent. • Asian populations will grow from 4.4 to 6.3 • Black populations will tick up from 12.8 percent to
12.9 percent. What do you think the impact on legislative policy will be
when these demographic shifts occur?
