In 2000, 40% of Alabama voters opposed ending the constitutional ban on mixed-race marriages
In 2004, 50.1 percent of voters opposed a 2004 measure to remove a constitutional provision mandating segregated public schools for "white and colored children"
Wait, what? There was a constitutional ban on mixed-race marriages in Alabama all the way up to 2000?
I'd be surprised if Davis managed to win, although it's not entirely out of the realm of possibility. Considering the state, he'd be the best governor a Democrat could hope for.
