Clinton will win easily

If I were a woman and if I were going to vote strictly according to my self-interest, I'm sure I would have voted for Hillary, only because she might do something about the wage gap, the fact that women only earn only 3/4 of what men do. Yet, white women, and especially non-college white women voted mostly for Trump. What is wrong with my logic there?

Thanks.

They voted for Trump because women, in general, but white women specifically are ****ing haters. All these women in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Minnesota (MN. never should have been that close) who have acquired nothing in their lives except 225 pounds, a trailer home, 3 kids with two different men, The Complete Jerry Springer Box Set and an oxycodone addiction couldn't stand to see another woman get ahead and either stayed home or voted for Trump.

Wow the left is really nice and accepting of people's choices, and don't fat-shame or anything else they call people out on. Evidence ^

Oh shut the **** up Prince Valiant - when women do stupid **** they need to be called out on it. Just like men.

58% of white women voted for Trump. Only 37% voted for Clinton. I think it's safe to say that in those states, the gap is even wider.

Yeah but exit poll data showed that low income vote still favored Clinton.

Also think it's hilarious that the media doesnt want to talk about how Trump actually got a higher percentage of the minority vote than Romney did in 2012.

I deleted the post because the data I was misread what I was looking at and those stats are insufficient.
 
This election had more to do with the fact people didnt want to vote for Clinton because she was uninspiring and a bad choice with a history of lying and corruption. Repubs are goign to vote for Repubs, the data showed that. Independent voters and some dems just didnt want to vote for Clinton.

I think your first statement truer than your second. In 2008, people were inspired to vote for Obama. The same this year for Trump. I imagine in 2020, the Dems will realize they ****ed up this time around and come out better, voting for any Democrat with a pulse.

Trump didnt even win the popular vote though. I dont think people were voting in droves for Trump, it just the same people who voted for Obama in the swing states didnt bother voting for Clinton. When your entire campaign strategy is "Im not as bad as that guy" that isnt going to inspire people to get out and vote.

This is more to what candrew was referring.

62% of white female non-college grads voted for Trump. In the states, he mentioned, I'd imagine that's close to 70%.

But she still did better with white women non-grads than the men, so the picture of the women being "haters" is inaccurate IMO. If they were just haters they would be a lower percentage than the men of the same category.
 
Furthermore the gap between college women to college men is the practically the same as non-college women and men.
