Mia Love said that Democrats “targeted me because I am a black female Republican. … They tried to get rid of every diversity that they possibly could.”
Let’s see which political party, Republican or Democrat, seemingly is diversity/female challenged. The best I can tell:
Black Republicans in the 2019 U.S. House of Representatives: Two. Oops, only one now, from Hurd, Texas. Black females: Zero.
Black Democrats in 2019 House: 72, Females: 20.
In addition: Latina black women in the House: Nine, all Democrats.
Asian Pacific Islander black women in the House: Seven, all Democrats.
Estimated “Diversity/Female Spread” for black and other minorities elected to the 2019 House of Representatives: Democrats: 88/35 vs. Republicans: 1/0. Mia, you gave “no love” and you lost.
