In 2004 unmarried women left 20 million votes on the table, a number which could have changed the election considering the contingent makes up the largest block of progressive voters in the country. In 2006 they voted 66% to 32% democrat. These women have made it clear throughout this primary season that they have learned from the mistakes of 2004, they are voting in record turn out and they are voting to make a change. A new report released by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner shows that 77% of unmarried women believe the country is moving in the wrong direction and 82% of registered women belive they are certain to vote and vote for democrats.
We have already seen this happening with women delivering the win for Hillary in New Hampshire, making up 26% of the Democratic vote on Super Tuesday and turning out in historic numbers yesterday for the Potomac Primary. Yes, this election is historic in and of itself...the millennial vote is huge, the Hispanic vote is huge, but women are going to be the ones in this election who deliver change for the country!
