WASHINGTON (AP) — Once again, black female voters showed up for Democrats, with almost every single one of them voting in Alabama for new Sen. Doug Jones, just as they did for Democratic candidates up and down the ballot in other states over the last few months. These same women, having proven their loyalty by voting 98 percent for Jones, now wonder whether the Democratic Party will return their love by sharing some of the party's political power, handing over places at the negotiating table and pushing legislation that speaks to their unique issues. "Black women showed up and showed out," said Kimberlè Crenshaw, co-founder of the African American Policy Forum.
