Sean Trende “The Case of the Missing White Votes”:
As of this writing, Barack Obama has received a bit more than 60 million votes. Mitt Romney has received 57 million votes. Although the gap between Republicans and Democrats has closed considerably since 2008, Romney is still running about 2.5 million votes behind John McCain; the gap has closed simply because Obama is running about 9 million votes behind his 2008 totals.
Of course, there are an unknown number of ballots outstanding. If we guesstimate the total at 7 million (3 million in California, 1.5 million or so in Oregon and Washington, and another 2.5 million or so spread throughout the country), that would bring the total number of votes cast in 2012 to about 125 million: 5 million votes shy of the number cast four years ago.
With this base line, and armed with the exit-poll data, we can get a pretty good estimate of how many whites, blacks, and Latinos cast ballots in both 2008 and 2012. Assuming the 72/13/10/5 percentage split described above for 2012, that would equate to about 91.6 million votes cast by whites, 16.6 million by blacks, 12.7 million by Latinos, with the balance of 6.3 million votes spread among other groups.
Compare this with 2008, when the numbers were 98.6 million whites, 16.3 million blacks, 11 million Latinos, and 5.9 million from other groups.
In other words, if our underlying assumption — that there are 7 million votes outstanding — is correct, then the African-American vote only increased by about 300,000 votes, or 0.2 percent, from 2008 to 2012. The Latino vote increased by a healthier 1.7 million votes, while the “other” category increased by about 470,000 votes.
This is nothing to sneeze at, but in terms of the effect on the electorate, it is dwarfed by the decline in the number of whites. Again, if our assumption about the total number of votes cast is correct, almost 7 million fewer whites voted in 2012 than in 2008. This isn’t readily explainable by demographic shifts either; although whites are declining as a share of the voting-age population, their raw numbers are not.
Moreover, we should have expected these populations to increase on their own, as a result of overall population growth. If we build in an estimate for the growth of the various voting-age populations over the past four years and assume 55 percent voter turnout, we find ourselves with about 8 million fewer white voters than we would expect given turnout in the 2008 elections and population growth.
Eight million? It’s actually worse than that:
Had the same number of white voters cast ballots in 2012 as did in 2008, the 2012 electorate would have been about 74 percent white, 12 percent black, and 9 percent Latino (the same result occurs if you build in expectations for population growth among all these groups). In other words, the reason this electorate looked so different from the 2008 electorate is almost entirely attributable to white voters staying home. The other groups increased their vote, but by less than we would have expected simply from population growth.
Why did so many white voters stay home? Certainly the entire electoral process turned millions of people off. Its length, its mindless attack and counterattack over nothing, and the fact that the allure of voting for Obama had gone all probably contributed to the bulk of white people staying at home on Election Day.
But Sean has another reason as he looks at turnout in his homes state of Ohio:
My sense is these voters were unhappy with Obama. But his negative ad campaign relentlessly emphasizing Romney’s wealth and tenure at Bain Capital may have turned them off to the Republican nominee as well. The Romney campaign exacerbated this through the challenger’s failure to articulate a clear, positive agenda to address these voters’ fears, and self-inflicted wounds like the “47 percent” gaffe. Given a choice between two unpalatable options, these voters simply stayed home.
American presidential politics has reached a low point. It’s hard to imagine a campaign that could be more negative and more mendacious than the contest we’ve just witnessed. We are not getting the government we deserve because no one deserves such a wretched exercise in democratic politics. Nearly $2 billion dollars — not government money but real cash earned by real people — was poured into this race, and both the process and result left a lot to be desired.
If Sean is correct, 2012 was not the last stand of the white voter as many liberals are intimating. But it was missing in action. And for that, there’s plenty of blame to go around, starting at the top with Mr. Romney.
According to Rush, 3 million conservatives stayed home — they refused to vote for another Republican moderate. So there’s that. Had they voted, Romney would have won.
Brilliant.
We need to see the breadown of the 3M by state before we know if it would have resulted in a R/R win
It’s far more than these things. They are cut off, denigrated, and alienated in our culture. Often, especially if they live in a blue state, their vote doesn’t matter, and they know it. I saw somewhere earlier today, and I think is accurate, they have turned inwards. To extent they are able, they are going Galt and withdrawing, no longer sensing the value in fighting for a less than compelling candidate. These are not militias in gestation, but conservatives who do not want the government up in their grill.
Problem is, in the long term, they may, in fact, be militias in gestation. It may take another decade, but this Weimar feeling that I sense in this country is creeping me out. Add a little hyperinflation, and you never know what might happen. This is especially true of the white teen males now, who are being told that this is the new normal, they have no futures, and they can go suck eggs.
This is not a good combination.
I don’t think the leftists realize just what kind of powder keg they are creating right now – all they care about is short term gain and short term winning, oblivious to the ramifications of what’s coming as they play their race card in every hand dealt.
Yes, minorities are growing as a percentage of the population.
But that doesn’t mean that percentage of the population that is composed of the young white male is going away.
You take away their opportunities, constantly denigrate them as the butt of jokes, constantly portray them in a negative light in popular culture, and constantly give them the short end of the stick while setting aside percentages to minorities in education and jobs who may or may not be as competent or as deserving simply for the sake of racial quotas…..
When they reach adulthood, you destroy their opportunities for jobs and education, again in the name of racial equality….
Then set up a popular culture wherein they can be insulted with impunity based upon the color of their skin, are called racist if they show the slightest inkling of pride in their own ethnic heritage, and watch all kinds of minority groups proudly proclaiming their own interests at every turn….
This nation is creating the perfect storm that can result in a level of racism from these young white males the likes of which they have never seen. I don’t like it. I hate thinking this is going to be the end result – but human nature being what it is I can’t draw any other conclusion as to what the end result is going to be.
Maybe I’ll be wrong though.
Don’t you see how contradictory that sounds? They won’t get off their behinds to vote, but you expect them to exercise themselves to risk lives in a revolution?
Who said anything about a revolution?
I’m pointing out that when you target a specific group for negative treatment, you are going to get pushback from that group eventually.
The culture as it has developed is going to create more racists amongst this particular demographic than any KKK organizer could ever have hoped to accomplish – and this IS a bad thing.
Unfortunately, just as Obama now has the ability to imprint his mark on the SCOTUS for the next half century or so, what is going on now will likewise leave an imprint that won’t go away.
Once they start to hate, it’s going to be next to impossible to get them to stop or prevent them from passing that hatred on to the next generation.
Society thought we were creating a color blind society – and instead certain demographics have taken the opportunity to try a reversal of roles.
IMO, it ain’t gonna turn out well….
“If Sean is correct, 2012 was not the last stand of the white voter as many liberals are intimating. But it was missing in action. And for that, there’s plenty of blame to go around, starting at the top with Mr. Romney”
And so? May I remind you that White voters do us no good at all if they vote for the DemocRat candidate.
Now if the 38% of White people who voted for Obama stayed home…
“We are not getting the government we deserve…”
Cue up Mencken: “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”
I think I can solve the case of the missing voter for you.
They don’t intuitively like Democrats, but they are no longer religious, so the GOP stereotype/groundtruth (for their are elements of both there) turns them away. I say this because It was me. And it still is me,any time I have the feeling some local Huckabee is thinkng he’s going to show me whose boss.
Meanwhile on the other side, the greens can out-hellfire-and-brimstone any Christian preacher who ever lived. Of all the members of the donkey coalitions, the ones that I really, really, really can’t stand are the sanctimonious, preachy, in-your-face greenie donkeyholes.
So instead of not wanting to be TOLD how to live by a Huckabee you’ll risk the possibility of being LEGISLATED how to live by a Bloomberg. That’s a BRILLIANT rational for not voting.
I have nothing but contempt for those who – after 4 years of actual record – voted for Obama. For those who – after those same 4 years of record – chose to stay home? I f**king give up. You deserve to be herded and ruled over.
Democracy is way, way over-rated. And it breaks my heart to say this but it is my fellow Americans that have brought me to this conclusion.
People realized Obama’s record was either non-existent or awful; it’s just that the majority of people still blamed the economic problems on Bush, the Obama/media attacks against Romney and Republicans in general were successful largely because Romney didn’t even bother to fight back (Obama’s a “good guy” remember – all while allowing ads to be run that said Romney gave someone cancer), and Republicans kind of gave up on Obamacare and certainly didn’t offer a realistic alternative.
I don’t think they communicated well enough to people how much of an issue the debt is, criticizing someone without offering a substantive rational isn’t enough for the majority of people who are basically economically illiterate – case in point the “youth vote” – how could they honestly vote for someone who is creating an environment where they can’t find jobs after they spend tens of thousands of dollars going to school and where their future is literally owned by their parents and grandparents sense of entitlement to old-age welfare programs.
Don’t give up though, Mr. Moran presents some very hopeful numbers, and it’s doubtful that Blacks and Hispanics will turn out in as large numbers without a “generation defining” leader encouraging them. Keep your faith in people like Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, Bobby Jindal, Paul Ryan, Scott Walker, Nikki Haley, etc. We have a deep bench of communicative and ideological conservatives who are all in their 40s and who will, if elected, actually govern as a fiscal/limited government conservative, unlike W and unlike what we probably would have witnessed with McCain or Romney.
I hate to agree with you about this, but I agree with you about this.
Back in my rock-and-roll youth, I ran across the observation that very few people purchased the album “The Velvet Underground and Nico,” but just about everyone who did started a band. Well, it seems to me that everyone who voted for Romney/Ryan must have also contributed money, volunteered, and/or attended one of those wildly enthusiastic, overflowing rallies. Either you were committed and laying it all on the line, or you just didn’t care a damn anymore. When an election supposedly hinges on employment and the budget, and a proven job-creator and the best budget guy in the country can’t win it, what the hell are people thinking?
I think R/R were defeated by the same thing that has defeated conservatism – hell, has defeated COMMON SENSE – for nigh on fifty years now: The power of The Narrative pushed by media, academia, the arts, all those who work with words rather than things. The average person generally believes what he’s told about anything of which he has no specialized knowledge or experience – and what he’s told is false and mendacious. But unless he takes an interest and seeks out further knowledge, it’s all he has to believe in. Like Ronald Reagan, the problem is not what they don’t know, but what they know that isn’t so. The only guy who could have turned this one around for us – not as a candidate but as a strategist – was Andrew Breitbart, and we shall never see his like again.
I thing there’s something more troubling on the horizon. A Democrat I respect for his intelligence and fairness told me “it’s going to be all about race very soon”. I was kind of shocked, but there it is. Being white is seen (and taught to our children) as “bad”, being older-old and white is seen as worse.
That is the picture put out by *Madison Ave.* TV Media Hollywood, even though mostly controlled by white people at the top. This is not called out as racism but it is. Saying the Republican party is “too white” is a prima facia racist statement. But it’s never called as such by whites. Using the term “old white males” is about as racist as you can get but you hear not a peep from anyone.
“A Democrat I respect for his intelligence and fairness told me “it’s going to be all about race very soon”. I was kind of shocked, but there it is.”
He’s right…it will be. In fact, it already is.
Do us a favor and tell that Honkie DemocRat that his skin is his uniform…whether he likes it or not, because that is exactly how the OTHER GUYS will see it, and already do. (In fact, they LONG have).
He’s intelligent? Was he around when the OJ Simpson verdict was read and saw the students of Howard University leap to their feet and cheer that “their boy” had gotten away unpunished for the brutal murder of his wife and the Goldberg fellow?
If he was, and he saw that, one wonders if his intelligence is over-rated.
If that’s too far back in time, ask him if he remembers the NAACP audience’s reaction to the Shirley Sherrod tale of putting the White farmer down…
Maybe, but I’m gonna wait for something like a careful study.
A turn-off of white conservative voters in California and New York might numerically balance the books, but I don’t have a sense that that happened. But of course the aggregate doesn’t really matter, only the counts in swing states.
The theory that the negative ads about Romney turned off a sufficient (small) segment of Ohio voters and other swing states? I dunno. Compared to the actual results (to date, pending humongous revision on reading the late votes), the number required is small.
Race! Race! Race! I’m sick of hearing about it. Our problems are not about race. They’re about culture, and what is happening seems intelligible. Our country was founded by people from northwestern Europe. First, there was a large importation of slaves from Africa. Then, beginning in the late 1800′s, mass immigration from southern Europe took place. Later came heavy immigration from Eastern Europe. Finally came the flood from the really undeveloped world. Our original culture has been swamped just as surely as the Native American culture was swamped by immigration from northwestern Europe, with the same consequence. We are now well on our way to becoming a second- or maybe even a third-world — culture, the kind that is constantly looking for a Maximum Savior to provide for them and are willing to trade Freedom for Security, though it brings them neither, but only corruption.
No, our problem is that race IS culture.
As much as we might wish otherwise, the voter results when broken down by racial and ethnic lines are a rather conclusive proof that this myth is indeed a fairy tale.
The bright side to this is that White Judeo-Christian culture has been objectively proven to be superior for the past 1000 years.
The proof of this is in immigration…they wish to come HERE rather than stay THERE…and they always have, and also in what has happened to former White colonies when Whites have abandoned them or been overthrown.
So if we hold to our White Judeo-Christian values, and throttle immigration to stop being overwhelmed by alien cultures that are simply incompatible with civilization, they will come around, even if grudgingly, to our values for no other reason than that they WORK BEST.
But we also have to be vigilant of those of us who have turned away from our values, and adopted similarly flawed and counter-productive failed philosophies. They are Judases among us, selling us out and sapping our strength…and because they look like us, they are all the more dangerous for it.
What I haven’t seen mentioned for awhile is the way Romney was pretty much forced on us. I voted for him but he wasn’t my first or even second choice. How many people stayed home rather than vote for someone they didn’t want?
Ohio is my home state too and I was back there in July and August. IMHO it really is true that the well was poisoned by the relentless early anti-Romney advertising on TV. I have perceptive friends there who say so. One of my oldest friends, a lifelong Republican, shocked me when she said she thought she wouldn’t vote this year. The TV ads had convinced her that Romney was an immoral out-of-touch plutocrat. It took quite a bit of conversation and emailing to bring her around. Don’t forget that Ohio, and the rest of the rust belt, is very very union. That’s why it’s the rust belt. And many people there, the ones who didn’t leave in the last 40 years in search of employment, have been through decades of hard times. It’s in their DNA to mistrust the rich boss, and it didn’t help that Romney was from the East Coast. Did you read what a strong ground game the unions put together for Obama? Apparently it was the best ever. I’m always a little unclear about what is meant by the “ground game,” but I felt after what I saw in Ohio in the summer, that people needed to be brought to give Romney a chance by seeing other people like them supporting him. There weren’t even any bumper stickers (anywhere in the country, I think). I guess if “ground game” means talking to people one on one it would be that. Or some sort of stunt to break through the negative media and make people notice, like a human chain “hands across Ohio” for Romney. I don’t think you can blame Romney for this, except maybe for the decision not to respond to the negative ads right away. But maybe they couldn’t for financial reasons. Was the same kind of negative advertising done in the other swing states?
All these words going back and forth, and I’ve not heard one peep about another possible reason for Romney drawing fewer voters in 2012 than McCain did in 2008.
First, let’s compare the two.
Romney, to put it in that racist venacular, is an old white guy.
McCain, to be polite, is an even older white guy.
Both have extensive experience in government. Romney all the way up to the position of governor, McCain all the way up to Senator.
Both are wealthy, Romney by a vast degree.
McCain ran against an inexperienced junior senator with no background.
Romney ran against an incompetent incumbant who had over 8% unemployment rate – even AFTER the numbers had been cooked – through most of his term.
Hmmm…what could be the difference between these two campaigns that could explain the fact that McCain actually drew more voters than Romney did…what is the phrase….oh yeah – enthusiasm gap?
I would suggest that, while Ryan is a good man, a good politician, and has lots of promise – he was no Sarah Palin.
Furthermore, if McCain had run anything modestly approaching a competent campaign, he could have won with the energy Palin brought to his campaign.
That’s my theory. I’m sure plenty will leap in to explain in detailed measure why I’m wrong. Let’s hear it. Let the flaming begin…
Oh, and one other little thing outside of the VP pick.
Why would conservative/libertarian voters go to the polls for a guy who set up the prototype for Obamacare? I voted for him, I now do think he was a decent man – but that Romneycare deal almost caused me to give up and stay home!
Ohio loved Sarah Palin. She would have done anything to help in this election, and I don’t think she was on a stage with Romney even once.
Lots of us love Palin, but unfortunately the leadership of the republican party has decided they are too easily embarrassed about her when they attend the ‘right’ cocktail parties inside of the beltway.
No flames from this quarter, Scottch. You are right in several of your points, but I disagree with you and Emily that Palin could have helped the R/R campaign. I live deep in enemy territory, and conservatives with the good fortune not to be surrounded by a mix of fancy-college doucheousie to his south and poor, angry dependents of all colors to his north will miss this fact: Outside of committed cultural conservatives, the rest of the country has NO RESPECT AT ALL for Sarah Palin. That one bad interview with Katie Couric, and Tina Fey’s mockery (which won her the Twain Prize from a grateful Leftist culture industry) destroyed her. Anyone who might have been inspired by her already was a “broken-glass voter.” It’s an injustice and a damn, damn shame, but anyone who doesn’t already know that the caricature is false LIKES the caricature and wants to keep it.
I don’t disagree necessarily that she is damaged goods.
The republican party made a huge mistake in not pushing back forcefully when her character was being assassinated, and now they have someone who could have been a major asset who is instead sidelined by the leadership for fear they will be ridiculed.
They did it to themselves through their own ineptitude and a general lack of ability to handle popular culture.
Furthermore, I propose that Palin is not a detriment to the party if her talents are utilized effectively in the right quarters.
Think of her in terms of tools, such as a hammer.
You don’t use a hammer to try to saw a board with – you use another a saw. But when you want to drive that nail in, that hammer is the appropriate tool to use under those circumstances.
The republican leadership refused to use that hammer and were instead scratching their heads trying to figure out how to nail a winning campaign together when the solution to their problem was sitting un-usued in their tool box the entire time.
Those who despise her and think little of her will never vote for a republican candidate anyway – so where is the harm in using her exceptional abilities to generate enthusiasm within the base?
On the contrary, Palin has been instrumental within the Tea Party movement and recognized it for the force that it was in 2010, but she is shut out by the leadership at the national level.
My suspicion is she is not someone easily controlled by the leadership and they know it and are intimidated all to hell and back by it. I suspect they think of her as a loose cannon who is unpredictable.
And besides, they are embarrassed by her.
Had she actively campaigned for RR – while clearly NOT being on the ticket – she may have managed to motivate another 2 or 3 million McCain voters to actually show up at the polls and Tuesday could have gone differently.
Out of a voting eligible population of over 217 million, only just under 91 million bothered to show up and actually cast a ballot.
No way can I believe that Palin could not have motivated approximately 1% to 2% of that total available – who did not go to the polls – to actually show up and pull the lever for RR.
As for it damaging the ticket in “enemy territory”, I don’t see that as a drawback as the electoral votes in those states is going to go to the democrat anyway.
So while they snidely throw darts at Palin within their democrat safe districts, it is a useless exercise that doesn’t make that state any more democrat – and to the contrary may have motivated just enough people in otherwise close states to make the difference.
It’s not like it’s unexpected for a republican to support republican candidates….so her campaigning for them would not have been a negative.
You make a very sharp point. And if you are right about it, the situation is worse and even sadder than I thought…
White ? Black ? Hispanic ?
2012 was the last stand for the intelligent voter. Period.
The idiots voted for poverty and for tyranny.
The not-voting are included in the mass of idiots.
A bit long, but analyzes the “White” voter absences.
Conclusion
-White category has evidenced a single digit decline in percentage erosion (II.) of Total Voter Turnout
over the past decade even though increasing numerical values (IV.) over the same period.
-Black category has evidenced a steady, single digit increase in percentage participation (II.) of
Total Voter Turnout over the past decade while doubling numerical values (IV.) over the same period.
- Hispanic category has evidenced an explosive double digit increase in percentage participation (II.) of
Total Voter Turnout over the past decade while tripling numerical values (IV.) over the same period.
-Asian category has evidenced an explosive double digit increase in percentage participation (II.) of
Total Voter Turnout over the past decade while tripling numerical values (IV.) over the same period.
White category, while increasing overall numerical value participation in Total Voter Turnout, the Category’s percentage participation is in slow decline. In order to reverse this trend, energetic efforts To “Get-Out-The-Vote” will have to be employed (in reality, didn’t happen in 2012).
Black, Hispanic and Asian category’s are in frank expansion and pose a viable electoral bloc to ANY
political party…meriting messaging and numerical increases in Town Hall Meetings catering messaging
specifically addressing these three category’s wants, needs and desires.
(RNC-GOP didn’t do any of this)
Commentay (June 25, 2012)
We The People also are aware of the fact We are dealing with a Chicago-style thug in the Oval Office. As such, Tammany Hall looks like a walk-in-the-park when compared to Obama’s administration and all re-election operatives.
As such, Blacks, Latinos and Asian populations in the US are targeted for upcoming elections by this administration in a “no-holds-barred” anything goes re-election campaign (Bain Capital, 47%, anti-women, etc.).
As backdrop to this re-election effort by the Obama team, one must look at 1998 to 2008 “Total Actual Voter Election Turnout Results.”
Analysis of these data show:
1) White category has evidenced a single digit decline in percentage erosion of Total Voter Turnout over the past decade even though increasing numerical values over the same period.
2) Black category has evidenced a steady, single digit increase in percentage participation of Total Voter Turnout over the past decade while doubling numerical values over the same period.
3) Hispanic category has evidenced an explosive double digit increase in percentage participation of Total Voter Turnout over the past decade while tripling numerical values over the same period.
4) Asian category has evidenced an explosive double digit increase in percentage participation of Total Voter Turnout over the past decade while tripling numerical values over the same period.
Observation:
White category, while increasing overall numerical value participation in Total Voter Turnout, the Category’s percentage participation is in slow decline. In order to reverse this trend, energetic efforts To “Get-Out-The-Vote” will have to be employed. Crickets!
Black, Hispanic and Asian category’s are in frank expansion and pose a viable electoral bloc to any political party…meriting messaging and numerical increases in Town Hall Meetings catering messaging specifically addressing these three category’s wants, needs and desires.
(Axelrod capitalized on this…Obama won!!!)
In summation Supreme Courts striking down Arizona’s SB1070 leaving in place a section 2B provision while Obamas administration rescinds its 287 (enforcement) partnership…local law enforcement cannot arrest a suspected illegal alien…essentially vacates all law enforcement, freeing up illegal alien traffic through Arizona and other southern states. The largest illegal alien catagories before immigration for Legal Permanent Resident status are:
1)Hispanic and,
2) Asians.
Now, comes “Dream Act No.3.”
Closing thoughts: With White voters reducing their participation in Total Voter Turnout (over the past decade) while a slower increase in Black Total Voter Turnout but an explosive Hispanic and Asian presence, could bode well for Chicago-syle thuggery efforts Obama’s team’s strategy is unfolding for his re-election (tight race, results are there for all to see). God Bless America…wake-up and vote in massive numbers America is definitely on life support. Amen
11/09/2012 commentary:
“White” catagory, in 2012, HAD TO turn out and vote massively…at least an additional 6 million “White” or so (instead “White” stayed home) to counteract “Black, Hispanic, Asian” bloc voter registrations/voters increases. RNC’s (read:Priebus)so-called “ground game” was non-existant, didn’t happen.
Example: one guy, in North Phoenix, stayed outside a US Post Office six months (in 110 degree+heat) registering Democratic Voters…this was across the street from Arizona’s Dept. of Human Services (employment agency). Where was the RNC? HUH? crickets! The GOP likes to party but…doesn’t like the grunt work, that’s what’s wrong with We The Elite People of culture of corruption in Washington DC…like to gerrymander. Hard Work??? NAH!!!Tea Party, unite! Amen.
There were plenty of white males who voted for Obama. Unless the Republican Party can moderate its social agenda, they will continue to lose. Many Americans agree that Obama’s foreign policy is dangerous for America,and his fiscal policy will lead to another Depression. However,the majority of Americans want their Medicare, Social Security and women to have the right to make decisions about their own bodies.Keeping to the right of these issues will make the party obsolete. That is why so many did not vote.
It’s not that complicated, but here’s a clue:
In 2008 many conservatives stayed home because we were sick of being played like cheap fiddles by RINO candidates. In 2012, the GOP candidate was another RINO. Not just any RINO, but the man responsible for Rombamacare.
I’d say that’s as good an explanation as any for another million or so conservatives staying home this time.
White voters rule the polls.million voted vs. 34 million black, latino asian vorers. Stop complaining. The white vote dwarfed all other votes. Obama won because 36% of white men votres for him and 55% of white women voted for him. This number took white votes away from Romney
91 million whites voted. That is amazing. 36% of the white men voted for Obama. 53% of white women voted for him. The white voters, along with the black, lztino asian and other voters have spoken and they want Obama over Romney. Thank God for the 30% of white m
ales and 53% of the white females. This is a thank you for ending racism in MERCA
I also have another theroy. White Evangelicals stayed homw and didnt vote for Rommey because he is a Morman. Nlack mans perspective
If this was poker Romney has a full house Jacks ovet nines and he tjougjt that was the winning had but O ama hhad a Royal Flush and once they laid them on the table the cards didnt lie
Black mans perspective and Obama supporter
