I think the main reason there are so many transgenders running, is that there are a serious amount of pissed off LBGT w/e people with votes to cast.
Both parties are taking w/e votes they can get this year.
Science is a lot better regarding treatments and now normal people who feel thst was are empowered to transition or whatever. The more normalized it is the more you will actually see them and interact with them in everyday life. You might already and not know.
There aren't many trans-friendly professions. Social work is one of them though, and politician seems like a step forward from there.
Plus there is kind of a flavor of the month thing happening. Yes there will be backlash by the WASP patriarchs who wish to regulate gender through state to keep two or whatever. Yes we are likely to the point of excess here. That is why we are seeing this replay of Nixon, Reagan and Bush with Trump.
