@Red Storm (in NYC)
battleground states where Trump's base (WWC) is most prominent (percent of population):
1.) West Virginia (65.8%)
2.) Montana (58.0%)
3.) North Dakota (57.2%)
4.) Missouri (53.5%)
5.) Ohio (52.2%)

Ohio is based

Ohio is the largest of al those

Trump's base

Are those pluses and minuses in comparison to Romney in 2012

it's the margin of how Trump performed among these groups in 2016

the percentage represents the total amount of these groups among voters, right?

so whites are 71% of voters, then?

correct

if whites continue to have this high of turnout, then that has to count for something, right?

if Whites turnout like they did in 2016, we could win every election for at least a decade

well, we've got to make that happen, then

whites have always turned out more in the midterms than minorities

are there any stats for that, that could be interesting.

say no more, fam

compared w/ the presidential elections though

Well, that doesn't seem to be a good way of telling, white turnout among their own demographic is one thing, having data for whites among all voters, and their results in both the midterms and presidential would be what I'm looking for

in any case, this is interesting stuff, whites will always be the major demographic group in these elections

if we can get enough of the minority vote, maybe we'll be fine

oh you mean data that shows what percentage white voters composed of the electorate during midterms?

we'll never win the minority vote, but having 30-40% would be great

yeah that's what I meant

ok

while i look, here's one for racial composition by state during 2016,

>FL: Hispanics 15% of electorate

Damn

That's close to the black's percentages

found it,

apparently,

during 2014, Whites made up 75% of the electorate nationwide

And in 2012 and 2010?

Notice how _Asians_ vote +1 for the GOP that year

that gives context for a trend

Well, shit

A minority group voted for Rs at some point?
