Hillary Clinton and the sexist vote

"A vote for Hiillary is a vote for women"

Toward the beginning of the 2016 election cycle this was the mantra of feminists and the Hillary campaign team. There was a large push for women to vote for Hillary claiming she had women's interest at heart because she herself is a woman. The logical fallacy that is presented here is a false dichotomy stating that "A vote for Hillary is a vote for women" when in fact you can still vote for someone else and still believe in women's rights.A false dichotomy is a logical fallacy that leaves options out of a decision. This false dichotomy also eliminates the possibility that there are better candidates who deserve the woman's vote and hold women's issues as part of their main policy stances.
