At any rate, male participation in these elections seems to be decreasing with time. Attracting more men to the polls will, in general, help the GOP cause (gender gap, stupid), but I'm sure the RNC isn't interested in such efforts because they're afraid of being called sexist if they go in that direction.
The number of real mean are rapidly decreasing. The metrosexual is too interested in fashion accessories and spa treatments to have time to waste on anything outside himself like voting. Then there's the increasing number who hide out in their mama's basements playing video games 24/7.
Women live slightly longer, and older voters are (by and large) more likely to vote.
