Women voters hold the key to the next election.  Our vote is powerful. In every presidential election since 1980, the proportion of eligible female adults who voted has exceeded the proportion of eligible male adults who voted. Over 59 million women voted in the 2000 election, over 67 million voted in the 2004 election and over 70 million voted in 2008.  A higher percentage of women than men have voted in every presidential election since 1984.
