New York Timesin mukaan Obama kerää valkoisten äänestäjien ääniä sitä paremmin, mitä vähemmän osavaltiota on "rikastettu" mustaihoisilla.
Sen sijaan mustien rikastaman monikulttuurisuuden iloista nauttivista osavaltioista Obamalle ei juuri valkoisten ääniä kerry.
Eipä tämä liene yllätys kellekään, tunnettu totuushan on, että mitä runsaammin ihmiset saavat kokea monikulttuurisuuden iloja, sen vähempi he sitä kannattavat.
"The assumption has always been that a black candidate should perform worse among white voters in states with less racial diversity because those voters are supposedly less enlightened. In fact, the reverse has been true for Obama: in the overwhelmingly white states of Wisconsin and Vermont, for instance, he carried 54 and 60 percent of the white voters respectively, according to exit polls, while in New Jersey he won 31 percent and in Tennessee he won 26 percent. As some bloggers have shrewdly pointed out, Obama does best in areas that have either a large concentration of African-American voters or hardly any at all, but he struggles in places where the population is decidedly mixed.
What this suggests, perhaps, is that living in close proximity to other races — sharing industries and schools and sports arenas — actually makes Americans less sanguine about racial harmony rather than more so."
