Hidden vote: women.

A thought that occurred to me while reading some commentary on polilng. What does the early vote look like with women compared to 2012. If anyone has that data, it would be interesting to share.

It's possible that a "hidden women vote" can in part counteract any "hidden white vote" (which as likely as not does not actually exist).

And I think it's much more likely than that stupid "shy" don the con voter that only exists in the brains of fox news viewers.

Though I don't have exact numbers for you but I know that women outnumber men and in this election, I can say with all certainty that women are voting in great numbers because there is no F#%King way we are going to settle for a sexist bigot who throws a disabled child out of his rally and allows his supporters to kick at the wheel chair! He has gone down a dead end road when he messed with the women of this country!! Women realize that we have the power to take this idiot down and it is going to happen!!

Between the women voters you have great diversity with a common thread:hatred for the orange monster!! Trump represents the worst of our past and someone we don't want in our future. Hopefully he will move to Russia so he can be with his buddies.
