Amanda Renteria writes about the Electability Myth for Ms. Magazine.
From the article:
The cold hard facts show that women aren’t just electable—they’re empirically more electable than their male counterparts. The Reflective Democracy Campaign found that in 2018 women of color comprised 4 percent of candidates and 5 percent of all winners, white women made up 28 percent of candidates and 29 percent of all winners, men of color were 6 percent of candidates and 7 percent of all winners and white men represented 61 percent of candidates and 60 percent of all winners.
