EAST CLEVELAND, OHIO: OBAMA SPEAKS TO WHITE LIBERALS, DESPERATE FOR THE BLACK VOTE

East Cleveland is a historically poor area consisting of a 90% African American population. Many articles cite the residents’ frustration with their government representatives neglecting the crisis of condemned buildings, crime, and poverty that inflict the city.

It appears that the Democrats intentionally planned Obama’s speaking event in this city in a desperate attempt to reel in black voters this midterm election that the Democrats failed to capture in the 2016 presidential election. Citing video footage of Obama’s rally attendees, Weaver concurs that the Democrats may still be unsuccessful in capturing the black vote this midterm election.
