To verify or dispel any suspicions

NYC Mayor, Dem Primary, 2005. Ferrar in red, Weiner in blue, Fields in green

The *most* Republican district on there was a gerrymander to protect Brooklyn's last Republican assembly member IIRC.
Fell in 2006, IIRC. In which case the 2008 result is, well, wow.

I think you must have another district in mind - Dov Hikind has been assemblyman for District 48 since the 80's. As to why such a Republican district shows up on the map as so Dem, the crazy New York ballot system strikes again:

Dov Hikind REP 10,521
Dov Hikind DEM 8,397
Herbert F. Ryan CON 1,139

Party affiliation notwithstanding, Hikind endorsed McCain (and Bush). He is basically a Kahanist. (As in, actually - I'm not using this as a generic slur against right-wing Zionists).
Possibly.

Sad to say, but it's more likely is that I did only some quite insufficient research and jumped to conclusions somewhere... maybe a list with Dem and Rep by AD votes that, like, didn't point out that they were for the same guy, and where he had more R votes in 04 but more D votes in 06. Or something along those lines. Together with the district's bizarro borders.

It looks like Weiner won some of the blacker parts of Brooklyn, though everything else seems to break down along racial lines.

Only because there are Jews in those areas as well.

Why wouldn't Weiner be huge amongst blacks?

Because he's Jewish.

Franken had no problem winning the black parts of the Twin Cities (in both the primary and general).

Wow, this Dov Hikind guy sounds like a real fascist. Aside from his insane nationalism and racism he also spoke out against gay marriage and compared homosexuality to incest. I'd have to vote for the Conservative Party candidate as the most liberal candidate running. Pretty scary someone would have to make a vote like that in New York City.

I wasn't aware of any Republican areas existing in Brooklyn. I thought they were all imprisoned on Staten Island. When was the last time Brooklyn was won by a Republican Presidential candidate? Was it 1924 when NYC voted for a GOP Prez for the last time?

I did a little research. Looks like he was one of those nuts who went on about the Passion of the Christ being anti-semitic...

From Wiki:

The Passion of the Christ
In 2003, Hikind and a group of supporters protested Mel Gibson's film The Passion of the Christ. He led about 50 Jewish leaders and supporters to the Fox News Corp. offices in Manhattan in a demonstration, chanting "The Passion is a lethal weapon against Jews."[6] Hikind was vocal in his anger against the movie, saying: "It will result in anti-Semitism and bigotry. It really takes us back to the Dark Ages ... the Inquisition, the Crusades, all for the so-called sin of the Crucifixion of Jesus." After a News Corp. spokesman announced that they had passed on the film, Hikind warned other movie companies that they too should not distribute the film.[7]


What an asshat. Yeah, remember all of that worldwide anti-Semitism as a result of the movie.  Roll Eyes

Wow, we actually have an election here where both of us would vote for the same candidate (Assuming that you would vote for the Conservative Party candidate as I obviously would.)

There's a lot of racial gerrymandering in Brooklyn, in case you hadn't noticed.  The Italian, Russian and Orthodox Jews hate black people and yes, there are a number of those communities in Brooklyn.

Fields obviously had less than complete control of the Black vote.
Seems there may have been a Southern vs Caribbean element to that.

I suspect the Caribbean (black) votes were mostly just against Ferrer. And Weiner was the only real vote against Ferrer by the end.

Didn't help that Fields was from Manhattan, either.

A little insight re: the McCain areas in Brooklyn...

From the upper-left going to the lower right are Bay Ridge (Norwegian/Irish/mixed-white), Borough Park (Jewish), Midwood (Jewish), Bensonhurst (Italian), Bath Beach (Italian), Gravesend (Italian), Marine Park (Irish), Sheepshead Bay (mixed-white), and Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach (Russian/Ukrainian Jews; aka "Little Odessa"). 

The two Obama areas surrounded by McCain areas in Brooklyn are Dyker Heights (mixed-white; affluent) and Coney Island (Black/Hispanic).





Do you know how this matches up with Congressional districts? I saw on swingstateproject that McCain won Brooklyn's portion of NY-8, NY-9, and came close in Brooklyn's portion of NY-13.
