Meet the college-educated women. In 2016, for example, white college-educated women were 20 percent of the electorate, according to exit polls; white non-college-educated men were 16 percent. What if the college-educated women got very angry and very motivated, voting in record numbers? Well, that would be a big deal, if for example Democrats could win college-educated white women by, say, 16 points and nonwhite college-educated voters by more than 60 percent. (Overall, Gov.-elect Ralph Northam had a 22 percent advantage with all women voters.)
