Does Hillary Clinton have a woman problem? With only a couple of months until a November election that could put the first woman in the White House, the answer, amazingly enough, is yes. It first became clear during primary season, when Bernie Sanders, an old white man from Vermont, startled observers by collecting more support from women under 30 than Clinton. Now, as Clinton faces Donald Trump, a man who has insulted women as pigs and dogs, just over half of registered female voters say they back her, while more than a third say they prefer Trump. When female voters are asked how they feel about Clinton, the most common answer is not “enthusiastic,” but “upset.”
