@tassoula @SarahEMcBride Exactly. The solution isn’t to vote for a candidate just because of gender, it’s to vote for who we think is the best candidate. And sometimes it might be a guy, sometimes it might be a gal.

@tassoula @SarahEMcBride Agree 100% about the imbalance, which was created in large part by gender-based voting. I don’t think two wrongs make a right. You do. Guess we’ll have to agree to disagree.

But I stand by my belief that our duty is to vote for the best candidate, regardless of gender, race, sexual preference, political party, etc.
