November 8, 2016, traumatized Democrats into thinking women aren't electable, but the evidence shows that's dead wrong.
So are Democrats doomed to lose in 2020, as so many fear? No.We saw it this week in Virginia, Pennsylvania and Kentucky. We saw it on a national scale in 2018.
All of the ingredients of the 2018 victories were in evidence in elections this week: Strong women candidates, legions of volunteers and suburban voters, especially women, pulling the lever for Democrats. That's counterproductive. Democratic voters and Democratic leaders agree on a wide range of basic of gender equality values and policies, including equal pay, reproductive rights, and advancing more women into leadership positions. Whoever prevails in the primary, man or woman, will be the standard bearer of America's feminist party. We can trust Trump to drive that point home.
In short, it's about values, not identity. A man is not more electable than a woman with this slice of potential swing voters. The good news is the Democrats don't need them to win.
