Numerous Democratic midterm candidates have previously made anti-trans statements or voted for anti-trans legislation. Trans journalist Erin Reed published a list yesterday of these candidates and advised her followers not to vote for them, lest their victories convince the Democratic Party “that throwing transgender people under the bus is a winning strategy,” Reed wrote.
The time to vote against these candidates is the next primary. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of… the lesser of two evils. To mix metaphors.
That’s my first thought, Erin should have done this investigation before primaries, publishing it now is potentially actively harming dems chances.
Never heard of this person til after the primaries and their articles have been everywhere. Either a paid agitator or just a moron if you ask me.
Erin has been arround for years, I don’t completely agree with her current take under the circumstances, but she’s not an agitator, and has a lot of good coverage.
