Haitian Legislators Victims of Political 'Ethnic Cleansing' by Florida Democratic Party?

As two Florida Democratic state representatives contest their recent primary election defeats through the courts, a political consultant from one of the states major bipartisan consulting firms suggests the Haitian legislators might be the victims of a political ethnic cleansing by their own party officials.

The two legislators challenging the outcome of their primary races in heavily-Democratic districts are Rep. Mack Bernard of West Palm Beach and Rep. John Patrick Julien of North Miami. Both are immigrants from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and both have cultivated a reputation for being friendly to small businesses and school choice.

Youve got two Democratic primary elections: both very close, both involving Haitian candidates in districts with large Haitian-American communities, and both involving concerns about votes being counted and even voter disenfranchisement, says a consultant for one of Florida's major bipartisan political consulting firms. I dont know that its racial, but it sure is an interesting coincidence.
