    you did just that in this thread about diversity, as it relates to Irvine's demographics
    which is comprised of 40+% white, 40+% asian, 2% b;ack and 12% hispanic


    this was your reasoning that Irvine is not diverse

    Logically correct, but perceptually wrong. Why you don't shut the logic down.

    Johnny has 6 apples
    Lucy has 5 apples
    Sally has 4 apples


    Johnny and Lucy have more apples than Sally
    Johnny has the most apples

    You may think it's misleading, it's still correct

    Yes, 79.9% is a supermajority and would thus validly be called most. Thank you for the good illustration of me being right yet again.
    Do most of the apples belong to Johnny? That was the usage I was challenging. Republicans get the most support from white women, but it would not be correct to say most white women vote Republican.

    MOST White Women WHO VOTE ... Vote Republican?

    No, because it is the exact same issue. About half of white women who vote pull the lever for Republicans, about half for Democrats. It is just the demographic group that is most evenly split. Take the 2020 election for example.
    White women went 55% Trump, 45% Biden (all states here pulled from 2020 United States presidential election - Wikipedia) that's Trump +10
    White men went 61% Trump, 38% Biden, for Trump +23
    Latina women went 30% Trump, 69% Biden, for Biden +39
    Latino men went 36% Trump, 59% Biden, for Biden +23
    Black men went 19% Trump, 79% Biden, for Biden +60
    Black women went 9% Trump, 90% Biden, for Biden +81
    It would be entirely accurate to say most black voters, women and men, vote for Democrats. I would certainly say it is fair to say most Latina women vote for Democrats, at +39. White men and Latino men at +23 one way or the other are probably the outer range I would say most vote one way, but now we are looking at a 60/40 split basically. A solid majority, but probably not most. I wouldn't say most Americans are white, and that is a bigger majority. White women are by far and away the most evenly divided.
    As I defined my groups as whites plus Asians vs. blacks plus Hispanics in that post (perfectly valid sets), yes the group of whites plus Asians represent a solid majority of the city. I would say most people in Irvine, CA are white or Asian.

    You don't think a +10 difference is enough?

    The most recent election was the 53% regardless. I don't understand why you're challenging it. The premise of the thread is incorrect

    To say most? No. I don't think most Texans voted for Cornyn. Reasonable minds can differ, I suppose.

    You're relentless criticism of the left clouds everyone's opinion
