Dems with anti-trans views are on the ballot. What now? | Dr Helen Webberley

Helen Webberley on the brutal calculation facing pro-trans voters when their own party lets them down.

Trans journalist Erin Reed has published a list of Democratic midterm candidates with anti-trans records, and the question she is forcing is one the party would rather not answer: if trans voters keep rewarding Democrats who harm them, what signal does that send? The calculation is real, the stakes are high, and there is no clean answer.

    On one hand, you have a candidate that is anti trans in sports and on the other you have someone that wants to block hormone therapy, and child care, and wants to send trans people to mental institutions.

    For some Republicans, sending them to mental institutions would be the milder end of what they want to do. Letting the 7MM and Project 2025 go buck-wild with this country will not spell good things, that is for sure.
