I know basically nothing about either of them aside from having extensively heard about how Platner is a nazi war criminal who had an excellent time murdering people. Looking at their stances specifically on trans issues for about a minute, it didn’t seem like there were significant differences in their stated stances.
While I’m sure the sample size is smaller, that’s still a pretty wild swing - is there something I missed in my nearly nonexistent research that would explain why enbies favor Mills so heavily? Given the other numbers, it’s hard to believe that the war crimes are a significant factor for voters.
Having dug into the results more, I do think this probably explains about 6 of the respondents, but I think that leaves the 3 democratic primary voters that all chose Mills as statistically insignificant polling errors.
Generally I’d be skeptical of any demographic research that has a separate result outcome for enbies since the amount of enbies is so small it’s difficult to make it representative.
Yeah, before digging into their data, I incorrectly assumed their sample size for this number was larger because of the percentage. I’m still not quite clear how they interpreted 3 for Mills and 0 for Platner as +96.7%, that seems more like +100%, but I’m not a statistician, so wtf do I know.

Conservative hogs putting in sarcastic answers for a gender field that commits the crime of being open-ended, maybe

Could be they trust a nazi, a proud vet, or a cis man somewhat less than someone who is none of those things even if their stated policy is similar.
I’d just somewhat expect to see that reflected in other demographics too - in the end I think it’s mostly just way too small of a sample.
