    Unfortunately 46% of women voted Trump.

    58% of white women specifically, although Trump improved almost across the board from his 2020 performance.

    I wouldn’t be fooled by percentages, though. A huge part of this shift was Dem turnout degradation. She saw a historic sag in turnout from Biden peak.

    It’s not that women or Latino men or GenX or whatever preferenced Trump so much as the younger voters gave up on a Dem party that had given up on them.

      Well I think dem women not showing up to defend their bodily autonomy via the first woman president is as much or more damning than voting for Trump.

        According to an article that was recently posted by a Harris phone banker, there are disturbing numbers of otherwise liberal minded women who don’t think a woman would make a good president. This country is so fucking backwards.
