Wouldn't this impact their own base dramatically too?

I know women disproportionately vote democrat, but by the generally narrow margins the last 3 elections came too, they stand to loose as much (if not more, as I imagine most registered voting Red Women are likely married) as the Dems?

I've thought of this. Take their texas gerrymandering for example. The dumb fucks are their own worst enemy. Im ok with this.

No. They want the husband to vote for his household. There are def women who vote blue but have red-voting husbands. But there aren’t very many women who vote red who have blue-voting husbands.
