(6,273 posts)If women represent @51% of all eligible voters, that would be @ 26% of all voters who voted (women), assuming racial parity. Of that 26%, 59.4% were white, per the census, so the actual percent of white women who voted was 15.34%. Of that 15.43%, 68%, according to this table, voted for Walker. So actual percent of white women who voted for Walker was 10.43%. White women voters by population and race, make up @ 30% of all eligible voters in the state of Georgia. Basically a third of them voted for Walker. If you are going to use statistics please include the pertinent data. What's wrong with my demographic? It only gives a partial picture. It's bad that anyone voted for Walker, but if we continue to miss the big picture, which is low voter turnout, we will not progress.
