“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.

okay, this still is only about under 45 demographic. Maybe this survey has different results than the graph that was posted. I'm not saying the "bernie bro" narrative is right. I'm just saying that I can read a graph. There are more men than women on that graph. What people say is that more men support bernie than women. The graph supports that. There are more men than women on it. It's not a read. It's just what the graph says. Why are you guys like this.

The graph shows that more men donated than women to Bernie. Pew Research data this year shows that more women support Bernie than men. Percentage wise he has more women supporters than even Warren and Harris.

Again just because he has more men contributing to him than women doesn’t mean his base is mostly men. I don’t know why you are so hell bent on promoting your narrative and ignoring Pew Research data

I'm just being pedantic for your argument's sake -- you should cite the other articles to disprove the bernie bro narrative. But the original article you posted in the original post actually shows more support among men than women. Your conclusions in the post just weren't right.
