You will see why their data are better than exit poll data.

Nothing I said was inaccurate.

You quoted the NY Times as stating that “more than half of white women… voted for Trump.” You even put it in bold. This is what I responded to and it is NOT accurate. Exit poll data are entirely self reported, and then statistically adjusted by the pollsters.

The Pew research study is more reliable.

Instead of arguing with me, read the study.
