Women were predicted to come out in force to vote for the first female president and against a man who demeaned them and bragged about sexual assault.
Instead, they voted more or less as they always have: along party lines.
The share of women who voted for Donald J. Trump and who didn’t vote for Hillary Clinton was, if you look at past data, not all that surprising. For years, political science has shown that party outweighs gender when it comes to voting. This election, despite all the gender ferment, turned out to be little different. CONT.
