Sanders Has More Women Contributions Than Every Democratic Candidate

[Marilyn MonHoe 11,011]

Of the dozen Democratic candidates on October’s debate stage, Sen. Bernie Sanders has raised the most money from women since he announced his presidential campaign, with at least $17.1 million — about 40 percent of his funds — coming from women. This number includes large-dollar contributions and small-dollar contributions itemized through ActBlue.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Mayor Pete Buttigieg, who along with Sanders are top-tier fundraisers, have both raised more than $15 million from women this year. Sen. Kamala Harris, whose fundraising has fallen in recent months, has also raised at least $15 million from women. Both Harris and Warren are getting more cash from women than men.

Women donors contributed a fair amount of money to former Vice President Joe Biden and Sens. Cory Booker, and Amy Klobuchar. And though they have not reached gender parity in their contributions, they are receiving a higher amount of money from women on average than presidential candidates in previous cycles.

Although women donors have increased their political giving during the Democratic primaries, not all candidates are receiving the benefits. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard receives the least money from women, has the smallest number of women donors and the lowest percent of contributions coming from women so far this year. Only 24 percent of her funds come from women. Democratic candidate Andrew Yangsimilarly has low levels of fundraising support from women.

Combining both large-dollar and small-dollar donations, Sanders has raised the most from women in suburban or suburban-like districts — $15 million — with the largest number of suburban women donors. Warren, Buttigieg and Harris have raised more than $14 million, and Biden follows with over $12 million.

But I thought most of Sander’s base were men? Interesting

But I was told most of his supporters were raging misogynistic men? 

How can this be?

if you read the graph you can see that most of his supporters are men. he has more men than women (by far) contributing. He just has a lot more overall so the portion that are women are by-the-numbers larger than anyone else. 

Hooray for stats. You can interpret them in many ways.

It's interesting that women are relatively split on candidate contributions for the top 3 dems.

Bernie is definitely leading with more men, but that's not an inherently bad thing.

“New findings from The Economist show that women under 45 make up a larger share of Bernie Sanders’ base than do men in their same age group, contradicting a popular narrative that says the 2020 Democratic candidate's supporters are overwhelmingly white and male, to the virtual exclusion of other groups.”

“Concerned citizens across the political spectrum are often guilty of wishfully thinking that, if they say something over and over (and over) again, it’ll magically become true. But new data from the Pew Research Center has refuted one of the most beloved political narratives of recent years. The research reveals that, contrary to popular belief, Bernie Sanders supporters are more female and less white than any of the leading 2020 Democratic presidential candidates. So much for the male, stale and pale Bernie Bro.

Based on polls of registered Democrat or “Democrat-leaning” voters, just 49 per cent of Sanders supporters are white. Elsewhere, white people account for 56 per cent of Joe Biden’s supporters, with Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren tallying at 59 per cent and 71 per cent respectively.

More women support Sanders than his two female frontrunner opponents too. Women make up 53 per cent of Sanders supporters, compared to 49 per cent of Warren supporters and 48 per cent of those who support Biden and Harris.”

Hooray for data. You can only interpret it in one way. And let’s not act like every single one of his supporters have donated to him or have the means to do so.

He is leading with more men but the point is that people on here love to act Iike the vast majority of his supporters are Bernie Bro’s when that simply isn’t the case
