Wikipedia's demographics of Texas has a really weird breakdown of the stats including contrasting non-Hispanic whites(32%) with Hispanics of any race (37%) and at the same time identifying over 70% of the population as "white."

While 'Hispanic' confounds the data because it's an ethnicity, it doesn't make sense to consider race in some and not other categories and ethnicity in some and not others. In short, I'm still going with "plurality" and this guy being fail.
