NEW YORK (AP) — If women alone had voted, Donald Trump would have lost the presidential election decisively. Men were more likely than women to support President-elect Trump, but in the end, the gender voting gap was unremarkable by historical standards.

Harris had the advantage among women, winning 53% to Trump’s 46%, but that margin was somewhat narrower than President Joe Biden’s in 2020,  Trump benefited from narrow gains among men and women both, despite a campaign characterized by machismo that often peddled misogynistic rhetoric.
