That goes to what I said for total #'s not %. I am saying (for simple math) if the total # of blacks who vote this year is 100 then I would be 80 of the votes would be to Obama. Then if total # of white people who vote this year is 1,000 people then I would say maybe 600 would be voting for Obama and 400 would be McCain. Hence % wise. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/obama-voters/200133)._
