21%...Vast Majority...What's the Difference?
That's a question that the NYT apparently had some difficulty answering in a recent article on a Florida clemency board decision. "For the record.":

An article on April 6 about a decision by Florida’s clemency board to let most felons easily regain their voting rights after prison misstated the proportion of blacks among the state’s disenfranchised ex-offenders. About 21 percent of the estimated 950,000 ex-offenders are black, according to the Sentencing Project, a liberal advocacy group in Washington — not “the vast majority.â€I suggest everyone in America check this page at least once a day.

It's not refuteable in any case. It's true.

greyrooster,
10-15% of blacks identify as republicans (and that was true even before the rise of 'compassionate conservatism'). Your 99% figure is incorrect. And yes, I know it was a hyperbole.

I don't believe the 10 to 15% thing. Who took the poll. The NAACP? And if there was 10%. 9% of them would be spys. If 10% of the muslims were against muslim world dominance would that be okay with you? Not with me. Sorry guy. Don't buy the 10% thing. Even if they work for George Bush. They will change back as soon as the paycheck stops.

A closer guess would be 10% of blacks are black muslims. And growing.
