Let's see...I'll bet Detroit's problems were caused by continued Republican administrations.

No?

Oh! My bad...Detroit (1st on the poverty rate list) hasn't elected a
Republican mayor since 1961.

One of the most extreme examples of correlation != causation that I have
ever seen. Causation is pretty clearly the other way around, if relevant
at all. But, I doubt you'll understand it.

Also, how many major cities have Republican mayors in the first place?
It seems like even regardless of other demographics to a certain extent,
major cities are Democratic hotbeds.

You are correct. Just check out some of these major cities, and you'll get my drift:

Interesting........
City, State, % of People Below the Poverty Level
1. Detroit, MI 32.5%
2. Buffalo, NY 29..9%
3. Cincinnati, OH 27.8%
4. Cleveland, OH 27.0%
5. Miami, FL 26.9%
5. St. Louis, MO 26.8%
7. El Paso, TX 26.4%
8. Milwaukee, WI 26.2%
9. Philadelphia, PA 25.1%
10. Newark, NJ 24.2%

What do the top ten cities (over 250,000) with the highest poverty
rate all have in common? Democrat mayors.


Detroit, MI (1st on the poverty rate list) hasn't elected a
Republican mayor since 1961;


Buffalo, NY (2nd) hasn't elected one since 1954;

Cincinnati, OH (3rd)...since 1984;

Cleveland, OH (4th)...since 1989;

Miami, FL (5th) has never had a Republican mayor;

St. Louis, MO (6th)....since 1949;

El Paso, TX (7th) has never had a Republican mayor;

Milwaukee, WI (8th)...since 1908;

Philadelphia, PA (9th)...since 1952;

Newark, NJ (10th)...since 1907.
