I am well aware that Wendy Davis lost the Texas governor’s race by a wide margin. It’s salt in a very personal wound. Her campaign meant a lot to me, and to so many other Texas women — thousands of whom stood in line for hours to cast their ballots in support. Greg Abbott won anyway, and he won by a lot. But he didn’t win by a lot across the demographic landscape.
I went to the Texas Tribune first for a dissection of the election results, and one piece of information struck me as particularly… wrong. The Tribune cited CNN exit polls to illustrate the landslide, saying Abbott “beat Davis by lopsided margins with white voters (72-27), men (65-34) and women (52-47). Davis beat Abbott among Latinos (57-42) and African-Americans (93-7).” Last time I checked, though, there were thousands upon thousands of women in Texas considered Latina and African-American — what about their votes?

“It’s already been said that Greg Abbott won among women voters. So are women of color not women?”
Greg’s got 10 golden delicious apples, Wendy’s go 3 jonathans,
So are jonathans, apples?
Duh, that’s a question only a buffoon would ask. There must be so much stupid in her head that I’m afraid it’s liable to explode.
Maybe she could team up with Sandra Fluke, another epic loser, and start a “You’re Not Worthy” movement.
For Democrats everything is about race.
And for them “white” anybody doesn’t count and is to be dismissed.
Racist to the core they are.
>>FR is going to spend the next 2 years complaining about Mitch and Bonehead, just a prediction
Yup. No one is ever conservative enough for the majority of Freepers.
Wendy Davis has only three Johns?!?! Business seems slow....
Like your abortions in that respect, perhaps?
Black women didn’t just fail Greg Abbot, they failed Texas to.
I have never seen a poll on abortion broken down by sex. I suspect that it is because more women are against it than men. If that is true, then the feminists are on the wrong side of this womans’ issue.
Maybe white women just don't want to live like sluts and then murder their babies to deal with the consequences of sexual irresponsibility.
I have seen many abortion polls by sex over the decades and I used to point out that males are more pro-abortion than females.
In recent years I have seen some polls that show a slight female edge over males supporting abortion, so roughly it flips from male to female depending on the poll.
Unimportant? You fool, they're not even men - they're "males." And probable abusers and rapists. And as soon as inherently morally superior "womyn" can pass enough laws, they're going to be living in government camps. And that will be the end of womyn having to let such animals vote.
Just another sad example of identity politics shaming tactics. You aren’t really __________ unless you vote Democrat.
When they say they “failed us” they mean “they failed to support democrats”
giggle.
You are 100% correct.
>> WHY??
Because they’re stupid plantation cattle?
