Recent New York Times/Ipsos Survey Found that the vast majority of Americans, including most of the Democrats, do not think that transgender athletes should be allowed to compete in women’s sports.
Of the 2,128 people who participated, 79% said that biological males who identified themselves as women should not participate in women’s sports. Of the 1,025 people who identified themselves as a democratic or leaning democrat, 67% said that transgender athletes should not be allowed to compete with women.
For Libby, he has his own hypothesis about why democratic legislators in their country and many across the country are struggling so hard to protect the transition of girls’ sports, despite most Americans, and even most of the Democrats opposed.
“I think the attitude of Maine Democrats, they have not been tiring enough and they need to dig up,” Libby said.
But he expects Democrats that fight for their current attitude and censoring her on Tuesday night will return to them forward.
“I think this was a huge wrong step by Democrats, and they were completely wrongly judging this question and do not understand how strong Maine people disagree with them in this policy, and at some point they will complain about this action from tonight from tonight tonight, “she said.
Libby added that she believed her republican colleagues returned as she was fighting censorship.
