Cokie Roberts on women and voting

This interview was on NPR's Morning Edition today and prompted a chuckle from Cokie Roberts when asked “The woman’s vote is something we talk about every election and how important a role women play.  Is there something different happening this year or is this the reality of every election that women are really important?”

Cokie chuckles and replies “Yes, they are really important because it is the majority of the vote.”

She goes on to explain that women vote on the economy and the role of government.  She states that it’s not that women like government but they don’t dislike it as much as men do.  I thought it an interesting segment and worth listening to.
