Can someone please try to explain why it seems many more women turn out to vote than do men? Of course they tend more to vote for the 'rats, while men tend more to vote GOP.
I heard that women began outnumbering men in the presidential electorate about 1980. Before that, men outnumbered women because politics was traditionally a man's interest.
As well as capturing a larger share of the women's vote, maybe the GOP ought to be doing things to attract more men to the polls.
There have been more women voters than men voters since 1964, and women register and vote at a higher percentage than men.
Men were taught to be self-reliant. Women were taught to be dependent on men, and, since the Great Society, on the government.
First, thanks for the ping! Been out of the loop a bit today as preparing for possible trouble with Issac. Really think FL panhandle area and AL,MS,LA will get the brunt but hope it isn't over a CAT 2!
As far as reports that “women tend to vote for the ‘rats’, I believe that is what the Media wants everyone to think and that is what they hope for! I find it hard to believe but maybe it is because I am a Conservative woman. AND even when I was a registered Demrat years ago, I was still conservative in my thinking! Hard to believe, right?
I will add that this coming election gives us all a clear choice, and women will no doubt turn out in droves. It is also my opinion that the women AND men who choose Obama in November will clearly be those who have done NO research, listen ONLY to Liberal Media, AND preally don't CARE that they know NOTHING about Obama!
