@DKarol @jonathanchait @jbview @perrybaconjr I feel like putting out the notion that women and nonwhite politicians are just *destined* to be unpopular is both inaccurate and very likely to have negative impacts on their careers. — PolitiTweet.org

@DKarol @jonathanchait @jbview @perrybaconjr I mean you can do what you want. But I don't think the evidence supports the view that women systematically underperform men electorally, and think it would be bad for Democrats to say "never nominate women in tough races" is the right takewaway from Harris being unpopular. — PolitiTweet.org
