Yes I do remember that. But again, I'm asking specifically about voters expressing reticence in voting for a woman.....or Hillary's campaign expressing that it was a concern that people wouldn't vote for a woman the way some in Harris's campaign is now. I don't recall those conversations eight years ago.

Like I said...There were all kinds of questions about that in the media, for example.

To the extent it seems more pronounced in 2024, it could be because 2016 made it an open question because how else could he have won that year?

The typical 2016 Hillary voter in my experience started out by saying, тАЬSheтАЩs not really my first choice, but I guess we have to vote for her.тАЭ I do recall one white female friend (a friend since childhood and ex-gf with an abusive mother who is now in a long term lesbian relationship) who expressed that they were voting for Trump in part because Hillary was a woman.
