    …the one that took place before 2022?

    Besides the most recent turnout demonstrating that the women who did vote did not turn more democratic, even Bidens victory in 2020 had nearly the same margins.

    In 2020, men were almost evenly divided between Trump and Biden, unlike in 2016 when Trump won men by 11 points. Trump won a slightly larger share of women’s votes in 2020 than in 2016 (44% vs. 39%), while Biden’s share among women was nearly identical to Clinton’s (55% vs. 54%).

    Again, it might feel like more women are turning away from the conservative camp, but they certainly aren’t voting like it.

    A removedTONNE of women I know became a hell of a lot less conservative when Roe Vs Wade was overturned.

    Now if only they would vote like it

    Republicans also gained support from a higher share of women compared with previous elections: 48% of women voters cast ballots for GOP candidates in 2022 while 51% favored Democrats. In 2018, 40% voted for Republicans while 58% supported Democrats.

    For further context, the Dobbs decision was June 2022…
