Shiva Bayat — A Vote for Bernie Is a Feminist Act

Bernie Sanders’ victory over Hillary Clinton in the New Hampshire primaries pointed to the overwhelming support Sanders has among young women—Sanders garnered 53 percent of the female vote overall, compared with Clinton’s 46 percent. Among women under 45, Sanders received 69 percent of votes; among women under 30, he got 82 percent.
Holy cow, Batman!

Sure, go ahead and vote for Bernie - if he loses, he will throw his support behind Hillary. He has repeatedly called for DP unity. It's win - win.

Older women who vote for Hillary are presumably feminists too. Another win!
