Obama needs 37 / 87 = 42.5% of the 87%
McCain needs 50 / 87 = 57.5% of the 87%
So McCain needs about 6 of every 10 non-black votes to win and Obama needs only 4 in 10. McCain needs almost 50% more than Obama to win.
NOTA GONNA HAPPEN |
Do you mean, McCAin needs 6 out of every 10 non-black votes in the electoral colleges of the states?
How can we calculate the black-non-black voting blocks in the states?
Included in this non-white vote are:
Hillary supporters that are hesitant to vote for, or won't vote for Obama
White women
Hispanics
