27 of the 30 cities with the highest crime rates are governed by Democrats
In the 14 cities with Soros-bought prosecutors, there were 1,752 homicides, 68% of homicides in the 30 cities with the highest number.

The increase in crime is one of the problems that most concerns citizens. It is making the chances of a good outcome for Democratic candidates less and less likely. According to polls, the Republican Party will obtain a majority in the House of Representatives and the Senate.
Voters in large cities favor the Democratic Party. Democrats have introduced crime prosecution reform measures in recent years that, according to their critics, make them softer on criminals. Some of these measures, such as the elimination of cash bail, have been shown to contribute to increased crime.
George Soros and George Floyd
Two factors have contributed to the fact that cities governed by Democrats are "softer" on crime. On the one hand is George Soros' support of those Democratic candidates who share his vision, specifically, progressive prosecutors. On the other hand, these reforms, such as the defunding of the police or the decision not to fight petty crime, got a big boost after George Floyd's death in May 2020.
The Heritage Foundation has conducted a study in which it ranks the country's major cities according to the homicide rate per 100,000 inhabitants. This indicator is a good way to get an idea of the prevalence of the most serious crimes in cities. Of the top 30 cities, 27 are governed by Democrats.
