In reply to the discussion: Nah, White Women ... You Cant Have This One [View all]radical noodle
(8,635 posts)31. Thank you She!
and many thanks to the black women who were once again the most educated, responsible voters.
As for the white women (especially the one who, with her daughter in tow. said that the allegations against Moore were "bull crap" they will never be smart enough to understand what they've done. They will whine and cry about the unfairness done to Roy Moore by "those people." Those people being Yankees, liberals, Democrats and the Washington Post... but they will likely never admit Moore was defeated by black women.
Watch out though, I worry about more efforts to suppress the black vote there.
BTW, some thanks are due to black men too... I saw many waiting in line to vote.

I have not researched all the vote numbers, but only 40.4% of Alabama voted.

Especially in Alabama. They have other elections which only have 18% voting.

One of the best Moore-Jones threads I've read. Finally giving credit where credit's due.

It's not utopia to understand we all need each oother. None of us alone can change what is going on
