Uh... If the misogyny was enough to remove enough votes from them to allow the worse candidate to win, then obviously it was a decisive factor. Being a decisive factor does not equal being the only factor.
Sure, but how do we put actual numbers behind that "if"?
No, it wasn't the decisive factor. The misogynists wouldn't have voted for Harris either way. The decisive factor was Harris failing to inspire her own base while pandering to the elusive "undecided voter" by propping up Liz Cheney, among other things. Don't get it twisted, Harris lost because she and her team were too incompetent to read the room.
What is this the decisive factor you're talking about? You can have several.
