Why I'm sticking with Urban Educated White People

Because they win elections and serve amazing salty magat tears in GIANT mugs!

While both Trump and Joe Biden made gains on their party’s vote share in 2016, as fringe candidates were pushed to the sidelines, it was the Democrat who made the largest gains.


However, Biden did marginally better in counties where more than 90% of the population was white.


Biden on average gained 3.2 points in places that are more than 50% urban. In Maricopa county in Arizona, where nearly 2 million votes were cast, the Democratic party increased its vote share by 6 points.
