No, sorry, statistics don't work that way. If the population of criminals is somewhere around 3% of the nation, then they constitute a minority of a minority.
Let's put it this way; let's say you're a member of a law firm, Dewey, Chetum & Howe. There are twenty guys in the law firm. They vote 30% Dem, 70% Repub. As it happens, their demographic also votes 30% Dem, 70% Repub. The members of Dewey, Cheatum & Howe are not causal in their demographic; they're too small a part. The twenty lawyers do not "create" their demo's voting patterns.
In fact, if criminals were to create or cause a voting trend, they would need to vote overwhelmingly in a direction. Instead of sixty-some percent voting Dem, they would need to vote in the eightieth or ninetieth percentile, and their turnout would need to be well above the national average. Then they would create a statistical shift. But by voting in line with their demographic and ethnicity, they do nothing but pad out the Dem numbers in a not-terribly-helpful way.
