Politically, I don't understand her motivation. She already has the black vote. What is she hoping to gain, from a re-election standpoint? All she is doing is pissing of the white people. Some of whom may have supported her, some of whom may not have supported her but were kind of apathetic about it.

She has the luxury of not having to play a complex political game. She knows she's got the only vital BR demographic sewn up for reelection. She ran on only a few basic topics - transfer as much money to NBR as possible, make BRPD mostly black, including the chief, and create a police force that overlooks crime in predominantly black neighborhoods.
