Quinnipiac Poll: Obama Has Big Lead Among Women Voters
Just as with Latino voters, it shouldn’t be a surprise to find that President Obama is crushing Mitt Romney among women voters.
A new Quinnipiac poll finds President Obama leads Mitt Romney nationally among likely voters, 49% to 45%.
Key findings: The president leads 56% to 38% among women and 94% to 2% among black voters. Men back Romney 52% to 42% while white voters back him 53% to 42%.
Said pollster Peter Brown: “President Obama won only about 43% of the white vote in 2008, so his current standing among whites tracks his earlier winning performance. If the president can match or exceed his 2008 showing among whites it will be difficult to impossible for Romney to win. It is also very difficult to win an election when you are getting shellacked among women, the group that makes up about half the electorate.”
The Republican Party’s disgusting misogyny and total war on women’s rights is paying big dividends — for President Obama.
