Republican Demographics
Regarding “Profile of the Golden State Delegation” (graphic, Aug. 16), how about equal time for the demographics of the California delegation to the Republican National Convention? Of the 162 Republican delegates from California, 7% were African American, 14% were Asian American, 17% were Latino, at least 4% were openly gay and 52% were women. All were selected without quotas, based solely on their support for George W. Bush for president.
