    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.
