      It's the Greg Pumpkin, Charlie Brown Retweeted Jonathan Allen

      Wow, this is irresponsibly bad journalism. You're talking about women voters but only mention white women's votes specifically. You treat African American voters as a monolith but separate white voters by gender. This is so, so terrible.https://twitter.com/jonallendc/status/940867082501218309 …

      MONTGOMERY, Ala. - Women drew the line at Roy Moore. http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/2017-elections/alabama-s-women-wrote-verdict-roy-moore-n829186 …

      98% of African American women voted for Jones; in politics, that is monolithic. I’ve written about the importance of African American women in elections before (http://www.rollcall.com/news/opinion/clinton-owes-her-commanding-lead-to-african-american-women …), and I will do so again. Last night, drop in white women’s support for GOP was more striking.

      But more to the point, the story was about women of all colors rejecting Moore. The lede was not race-specific and the first data point was 58 percent of women (ALL women). voted for Jones. I broke out white women because they voted so differently than they usually do in Alabama.

      If that was the story, why didn't you write that story? You wrote the "white women" story. If they were the only group worthy of breaking out, you didn't write the story "about women of all colors"

      I think I did write that story. The headline is women, the lede is women, the main data point is 58 percent of women - all women. All that said, I understand your point and appreciate you making it.

          And I will just add, regarding your point about white women, white men were nearly twice as likely to vote for Jones than Obama in 2012, so I'm not really sure the story of change in white women's votes in comparison to white men's votes is all that notable either

          No, not all women. It’s quite clear that white women went for Moore. You’re using black women to provide cover for what white women did. It’s misleading.

          You cannot talk about women drawing the line without talking about the racial breakdown. It was NOT all women who saved Alabama from their pedophile candidate.

          It’s telling that the only person you’ve bothered to discuss this with is another white man.

          The headline is 98% black women. But you're not going to ever acknowledge that so have a good day ignoring everyone.
