Thanks for the numbers. Obama had a great turnout among minorities and young voters. Women also bought his message hook line and sinker. Obama only had 41% of white men. So basically we need to find out why suburban women like Obama so much.
It wasn’t so much suburban women. White women went for McCain 53-46, a slight decrease from the 55-44 that they went for Bush by in 2004. It was also a bigger increase over the 49-48 that they went for Bush by in 2000 vs Gore.
I think it’s pretty obvious what kept McCain’s #s high among white women.
Where Obama cleaned up was in getting 100% of black women and near 100% of hispanic women, and I don’t think most of those are suburban.
