The next election will mark the first time in American history that binders full a bunch of women will seek the presidential nomination of a major party.
Which female candidate will get the endorsement of most feminist organizations?

That assumes all these women even run, which is doubtful.

Are you implying that none of them will run?

I think Cantwell would get the least traction out of any of these candidates (with the lowest name recognition of the bunch), so she likely wouldn't really be prominent enough of a candidate for endorsements from major organizations. Gabbard has questionable ties to foreign leaders with human rights violations and her dad was infamously homophobic (Tulsi herself was pretty aggressively anti-LGBT in her earlier years), so I would take her out of the running too.

Klobuchar, Warren, Harris, and Gillibrand would all be liked by feminist organizations I'm sure. But Gillibrand has made fighting sexual assault a huge part of her brand (heh, heh), and I'm guessing that would be a particularly useful quality towards getting positive attention from feminist groups - so I voted for Gillibrand. Klobuchar, Harris, and Warren don't strike me as having that one issue that really defines them (except for maybe Harris w/ criminal justice and immigration reform, but that's still not to the same extent as Gillibrand w/ fighting sexual assault), and I think Gillibrand being so aggressive in this one area would help her stick out from the pack for feminist causes.

They either won't endorse one person, or if one candidate looks like a big favorite to win anyway, they'll endorse that candidate.

This. Or they'll endorse whichever woman candidate seems to be seriously in the running, assuming they're relatively reasonable.

They'll endorse the leading centrist.

So not Warren (leftist) or Gabbard (odd ball).

The G-Lizard is the most outwardly feminist of all of them. I doubt Cantwell and Gabbard are running, too.

Like others have said, no endorsements until the last lady standing.

They won't endorse anyone but feminists will gravitate towards Warren or Harris.

Modern American feminism has been infiltrated by the "MUH INTERSECTIONAL OPPRESSION" nuts, so I'm going to go with Harris.

Kamala because identity politics rule their agenda.
