This is also the "Solarz Rule." Stephen Solarz was a liberal Democratic Jewish congressman from Brooklyn, NY who assumed that the area’s new demographic group, Latinos, would continue to vote for him because he was a liberal. They liked his voting but threw him out for one of their own.
By James Fulford writes: The New York Times’s obituary says that nine-term congressman Solarz, something of an immigration enthusiast, was defeated after "his district had been redrawn to facilitate the election of a Hispanic candidate."Wikipedia says he was defeated in the primary by Nydia Velazquez, who has held the seat since 1993, and is " the first Puerto Rican woman to be elected to Congress, and the chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus until January 3, 2011.
