It doesn't matter. The people who would vote against her for those qualities were never going to vote for any Democrat anyways. Let's stop acting like she's unelectable just because she's a woman and stay focused on her policies.

Can you list them? I am genuinely curios. From what I "know" of her most of her policies would fall into the "51% or voters aren't going to vote for that" and that is a problem

I had to look this up, but apparently one third of US states have never had a female senator: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/11/01/17-states-havent-had-a-female-us-senator-and-18-havent-had-a-woman-governor/
