Here's a story you probably haven't heard about the Nov. 3 election results: Radical gender ideology lost. Badly.

This reality has been overlooked in virtually all the coverage of the Republican bloodbath in House, Senate, and gubernatorial races. It's true that Democrats romped to victory across the board, including in many races where their chances looked slim as recently as a few weeks ago. It's also true that the new crop of elected Democrats still broadly embraces the most extreme gender ideology, especially when it comes to children.

Yet in three blue and purple states, gender ideology was explicitly on the ballot, and voters sided with common sense and protecting children. This story deserves more attention because it shows that Democrats are out of touch with a large percentage of their own voters.

Take the bluest state with a ballot measure based on common sense - Washington state.

Initiative 638 sought to prohibit biological boys from competing in girls' sports at the K-12 level. It also aimed to require documentation from healthcare providers about athletes' sex. The Democratic Party broadly opposes these protections, but voters in Washington came out in support. While the final tally hasn't been released, the current result is that 56% of voters approved the ballot measure. Only 43% voted against it.

It's a similar story in Arizona - a purple state that's been trending bluer in recent elections.

In the Grand Canyon State, Proposition 318 would restrict school bathrooms and locker rooms based on a person's biological sex. It would also limit children to playing on the right school sports teams. Lo and behold, nearly 60% of Arizona voters sent gender ideology down to defeat.

Then there's Colorado, a blue state where voters weighed in on two separate ballot measures.

The first - Proposition 134 - was also about limiting children to sports teams based on biological sex.
