Stop that!

The "gender gap" is an established theme in American politics. Democrats
count on a disproportionate number of votes from women to offset the
corresponding Republican advantage among men. As expected, the Gallup July
16-August 5 survey of registered voters shows President Obama leading
Republican challenger Mitt Romney by eight percent among women. But factor
in ethnicity and it's another matter. If the 2012 election were decided by
white women, Mr. Obama would be soundly trounced.
The same Gallup survey that shows Mr. Obama with a 50-42 edge among all
women voters reveals the exact opposite result among white women, who back
Mr. Romney by the same 50-42 margin. But 20% of the women voters in the
Gallup sample were nonwhite, where the gap is much more pronounced. Nonwhite
women voters prefer Mr. Obama over Mr. Romney by 40 points. This margin is
what drags the overall women's vote into negative territory for the
challenger.
