The only other areas in Texas where in 2004 Democrats won Travis County Austin, university, state capital
民主黨04年在德州除了南部的縣以外，還贏得了奧斯丁所在的特拉維斯縣，奧斯丁又是大學城，又是德州首府
I can't remember the county, but that's Beaumont industrial city lots of oil refining as well
還有一個忘記名字的縣是博蒙特市的所在地，那是個工業城市，煉油業發達
And it's interesting because Texas had been a real bulwark of Democratic Party
有趣的是德州曾經是民主黨的堅定后盾
If we could go back, if you remember Carter won it in 1976
回顧過去的大選，如果你還記得卡特76年那場的選
but it's pretty much gone and seen huge growth in the suburbs around Dallas and Huston, San Antonio to some degree
如今這種堅定早已消失，郊區在達拉斯，休斯頓和圣安東尼奧周圍迅速崛起
and those suburban areas very very heavily Republican voting

Now it's interesting what would happen in... oh sorry wrong way

You can see even in Kansas in south-western Kansas a lot of Hispanics, people have moved there, you might think what they are doing

I have to check I don't know the name of that county, but there's a meat packing plant there
我沒查過那個縣的名字，但那是因為那里有一個肉類包裝廠
Because that's generally is a sort of thing is going to attract Hispanic labors, but again their recent immigrants they are not voting
這種工作常常會吸引很多西班牙裔的勞工，但同樣，剛移入的居民是沒有投票權的
How would these areas be voting 20 years from now, well, we don't know, but it would be an interesting thing to watch
但此后20年那里的選情會如何發展，那就不得而知了，但這是個很值得注意的情況
Yeah, the question is about these very established Hispanic areas in northern New Mexico
他的問題是關于新墨西哥北部這些傳統的西班牙裔聚居區的
Overall the per capita medium household income is still very low
總體上他們的家庭人均收入水平是非常低的
You would have places like say Las Vegas, New Mexico where most people are Hispanic, yes they will be the business owners
雖然在有些地方例如新墨西哥的拉斯維加斯，大部分的西班牙裔都是一些企業家
