Amanda Brown Lierman: In reports of the American electorate, there is too much focus on white women — to the detriment of women of color and women’s collective political power. - NBCNewsTHINK
86 percent of Black women, 75 percent of Latinas and 43 percent of white women. The focus on the 57 percent of white women who voted for Glenn Youngkin, who won by only 2 percentage points, undermines the collective power of how women actually voted in Virginia and implies that women — instead of the politics, policies and dare I say, politicians who fail us — are to blame.
A close race has different implications than a resounding defeat. We already know the 2022 midterm elections will be close. Every vote will count. Turnout will determine the elections and the course of events that follow. While it’s true that not all white women have joined our multiracial coalition, we don’t need all white women to win.
