I’ve been saying this for a long time, but Democrats have a crisis attracting male voters. I’m looking at the data this morning for the election. And we are down with men in every single racial group. White, Black, Hispanic, Arab. Does not matter. I think we got into the situation with the best of intentions. Democrats have always been a big tent party, and we correctly are the party of women’s rights. But there’s something about our cultural approach that is alienating men. And I think we would be really smart to address it. Important to remember that Republicans have the opposite problem with women voters. Nearly everything they do pushes me away on a cellular level. But surely there is someway for us to stand by our values and get more men excited about voting for us again. I can’t pretend to be an expert on what would help, but my instincts are telling me having more balls in the way we communicate would be a good start. We tend to talk like overeducated technocrats.
