Sexism didn’t stop Elizabeth Warren, but that doesn’t mean it’s nonexistent

Published



Sexism didn’t kill Elizabeth Warren’s campaign. But that doesn’t mean it didn’t hurt her chances.

As my Washington Examiner colleagues have written, Warren’s campaign was marked by dishonesty and pandering, which voters quickly saw through. And unless she wants to blame internalized misogyny, Warren can’t blame sexism for her losses on Super Tuesday: In her home state of Massachusetts, 34% of women voted for Joe Biden, 26% chose Bernie Sanders, and just 24% went for Warren. Try to pin that on the patriarchy.
