    the voters are the ones responsible for the result of the election

    The candidate is not supposed to win elections?

    Given the Democrats avoided a primary in 2024, claiming it’s the fault of the voters is especially ironic.

        My point is if you believe the US is incapable of electing a woman candidate (which is what the people who claim, falsely, that Harris lost because of sexism are doing), then isn’t nominating a woman candidate choosing to lose the election?

          There is definitely a part of sexism in it, who knows in what proportion. But the problem in its whole is making that choice, and the list of reasons why is very long. Obviously including only the reasons that were known before the election.
