Women Favor World Run By Women More Than Men Do
Women are a lot more convinced than men that a world run by women would be better place for all.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that female Likely Voters by a 44% to 33% margin agree with this recent statement by former President Obama: “I’m absolutely confident that for two years if every nation on earth was run by women, you would see a significant improvement across the board on just about everything.” Just 21% of male voters share that view; 57% disagree.
Roughly one-in-four voters in both groups are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
