i had thought data was showing white turnout was down and black basically constant

maybe it was turnout in majority-white areas that were deeply conservative, vs mixed communities being higher, meaning for once the white liberals of AL actually went to the polls?

that's very plausible -- rural counties were voting in smaller numbers than expected iirc

so it's possible that literally no white people changed their minds, rural voters just expected to lose and liberal voters in cities thought they might win and actually thought it was worthwhile to go vote for once

we'd have to dig more into the numbers though
