Kamala Harris’s Loss: Was It Sexism, or Something More?
Jerry Preston argues that Donald Trump’s electoral success against female candidates Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris, both of whom received roughly 227 electoral votes, suggests a societal resistance to electing a woman president. He posits that this resistance mirrors similar biases against women in religious leadership roles. Preston concludes that while women have made significant progress, the US is currently not prepared to elect a female president. A rebuttal linked within the letter disputes the central claim, suggesting other factors contributed to Harris’s loss.
