Race In Ohio, Ctd
A fair reader point:
Let’s remember that in Ohio Clinton leads by 15% or so with over 40% of the vote in. Normally, this would be well above the amount needed to call the race for her, but in this case it isn’t. Why? Because the remaining metro areas yet to be counted have high populations of black people who are expected to overwhelmingly vote for the, um, black candidate. It isn’t just white voters who are voting based on race it is just that we find some voters who vote based on race objectionable and other voters who vote based on race acceptable. It is what it is.
