This is not my personal opinion, I know Gen Z men who voted for Harris. But the voter demographics really speak for themselves, and maybe now people will look at the radicalization of young men as a serious (but solvable) issue.

      The result of telling women they could vote for someone their husband didn’t vote for was the right flipping out and essentially calling them property. How likely do you think speaking up is when you are stuck financially to someone who sees you as a servant rather than a person?

        We went from voting privately to “speaking up”. Why?

        What was keeping them from voting for Harris besides their own shitty views?

          Nothing, lots of people just didn’t know they could.

          We found out tons of people just don’t keep up regardless of party, where to vote for Biden shouldn’t have been so popular but it was and is kinda sad.

        Lmao, ‘it was the husband’s fault’, good one.

        Seems to me a little belittling to not attribute responsibility to women when shit hits the fan.

          Let me guess, the “responsibility” we have to take is to “double down on moving to the right”.

            No, I’m talking about the responsibility of voting

          They have it all they want, I’m going to guess a lot just don’t want to deal with a pissed off significant other. Would you?

          Calm down and make some limited amount of sense and try to make a point.

          The Exit Polls that were a verbal conversation upon leaving might not be accurate if they are asking women in front of their partners, right?

          I’m not USian, so IDK how those polls work. I’m just dismayed that that many women would vote for a pedo rapist who took away their bodily autonomy.

          According to your link it looks like it was the other way around, women were 53% Harris and 45% trump. Assuming that’s what the blue and red bars mean.

            They’re talking about specifically white women, not all women, which the link (and exit polling from other major sources) also reports had a 53% vote for Trump.

              Ah, I see. Thanks, I just needed to scroll down a little.

              A lot of those white women are Christian evangelicals salivating to install the Christian Theocracy. It’s sad & infuriating. I’m seeing clips of interviews with swing staters of various demographics who voted for him. They’re all like, “It’s gonna be great, the stock market’s gonna go up 40%, gas prices will go down by half! All those ads about him doing bad things are lies.”

          Fair enough. I just talk to a lot of women, all are aghast no matter their race. Men are less so, though many are disappointed, they are more blase.
