We might vote for a woman of they’d run one worth voting for
If you go back without the “Dems are the real left progressives and not voting for them is a vote for the alt-right!” glasses you won’t find any women they ran were good candidates.
Plenty of people would vote for AOC, especially after a campaign raises her profile. And yeah, there would be shitlords who wouldn’t vote for a woman - but if you bring the policies, you bring the change people are wanting; the edgelords can’t outnumber the rest of the people.
The ones who endorsed Mamdani as soon as be won the primary can be assumed to mean what they say, and expected to vote for AOC if she wins the primary.
The ones who didn’t, and either never endorsed or waited until the last moment, should be ignored, primaries, and never trusted on a political promise ever again.
I.e. she’s not stupid enough to believe Americans will vote a young Latina woman.
Pale, male and stale.

Unpopular opinion: The Blue No Matter Who people won’t vote for AOC, because she’s too “uppity” to follow the party line.
There’s a great filter for BNMW folk.

Agreed. You put it in better words than I have.
