So what? The majority of people aren’t racists, that doesn’t mean that we don’t have racism. Sexism can exist and have measurable effects even if a female candidate gets more votes. The fact is, she didn’t get enough votes. That is in part because some voters wrote her off, believing a male candidate would be better because they were male. We know this is true because people have actually said that sex was a factor after casting their vote.
Could very well be, but Hillary Clinton’s presidential run doesn’t provide evidence to that effect, since the majority of voters chose her.
