Because of their significant and growing numbers, unmarried women can have a profound effect on our democracy. That is, if we can tap into what it is that they care about. |
They have a unique agenda, which is all about health care, education and economic issues. They are very interesting because they can be motivated to vote -- they have a strong sense of civic responsibility. So the door is open to candidates who would make it worthwhile for them. |
This is where Women's Voices will step in. There are a lot of important races in '06 -- from governors to senators. We are looking toward '08 but want to continue to build the numbers of women who are participating in the civic process. |
