There are a couple of Aleutian islands with tiny populations of under 5000 which have very diverse populations of fishermen and oil workers. But Alaska is "predominantly white" by any definition of that term. The only states where non-hispanic whites are a minority are Hawaii, California, New Mexico, and Texas.

Both demographics and turn out are not correct. They may have taken the image size and reduced by a percentage. Texas should be much smaller than WA. This is false.

Texas is 44% white and Washington is 71% white. 1.4 million people voted in the TX democratic primary, and only 230,000 people participated in the Washington democratic caucus.
