I'm not 100% sure on this, but Alaska probably has fewer votes on "feeeeeeeeeeeeelings," percentagewise, than any other state in the Union because it has the lowest % of females in its population.
In other words, the "feeeeeeeeeeeelings" vote is largely a feminine thing, and the "feeeeeeeeeeeeeeelings" vote largely explains the gender gap.
Agreed. But how else do you explain Miller getting shellacked by MurKOWski in a write-in vote, for heaven’s sake?
