RICHMOND, Va. – With just one more day to go in the campaign, there is one group of voters that Republican Ken Cuccinelli needs to win over to become the next governor of Virginia: Female voters. He currently trails his Democratic opponent Terry McAuliffe by 16 points among women.
Carol Noggle, legislative coordinator of the League of Women Voters of Virginia, believes that women are likely to have a significant impact this year.
“There were more women than men who are registering to vote,” Noggle said in a phone interview. “The higher turnout may be among women than men,” said Noggle, who thinks that after the election it will be important for female voters to remain engaged.

NH is pretty much two small metro areas near the seacoast dominated by Mass transplants and colleges. There is also a robust system for welfare recipients and Hillary was very popular there amongst the people living in public housing in Manchester, Rochester and Portsmouth when we lived there.
There is very little political participation by people north of the big union towns. You can draw a line from Keene to Rochester and just pretty much write off the rest of the state to the north because they just don’t matter.
NH has become dominated by welfare cases and leftists escaping taxes in Maine and Mass and it’s very easy to keep the the rest of the half drunk residents quiet by not touching the sales and income tax issues.
We had a community party and one neighbor was talking about moving there to be part of the Free State Project and I laughed at him. It’s a great place to hide, ala Walt White but not a good place to go if you are seeking less government and more freedom.
Free Staters should have gone with Wyoming or another western state...Red Hampshire has more rules and regulations than you can shake a stick at, and the property taxes..? Whew.
'Half drunk'...LOL! AA has a boatload of members here in Red Hampshire...I can throw a rock from my driveway and hit four of them. Cheap liquor available right on the interstates at the rest areas.
:) I’m fed up Puppage! Can ya tell?
I actually miss the big liquor stores..
You know you're in trouble when you go inside and you're presented with a regulation-size grocery cart...ay carumba! Got a kick out of all the Maine plates at the Portsmouth store before they started cracking down...trunk full of booze on your way to Bar Harbor...good times. (LONG time ago...)
