In facing a recall attempt by the African American community in his New Orleans district, Congressman Joseph Cao stated in the an interview with the local ABC affiliate that race may play the role in the recent recall attempt. A Republican freshman congressman in a district where 65% are African Americans and 85% are Democrats, Joseph Cao is facing a recall effort initiated by two African American ministers for failing to vote for the stimulus package.
The recall effort is deemed to be unconstitutional by the state attorney general and now is being challenged in federal court.
Cao is facing a tough race in 2010 and the odds are against him to win his seat.
