The growing global gulf between how men and women vote could save the world from another Donald Trump presidency
Supporters cheer as Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris waves during a campaign event, on Sept. 12, in Greensboro, N.C.American women voters favour the Democrats by a roaring 58 to 37 per cent. Men back the Republicans by 52 to 40.Women, propelled by social issues, have always tended to be more moderate politically than men. But now divisions have sharpened to the point where politics has become a battle between the sexes.
In the U.S., there are glaring reasons fuelling the gender chasm. There’s a woman candidate, in one corner; in the other, there is a man in Mr. Trump who has been found liable for sexual abuse in one case and guilty of 34 felony counts in another – a hush money case involving his relations with a pornographic-film actress.
In the broader context, pollsters cite a number of other reasons for the growing gender divide. Conservative parties in the U.S., Canada and elsewhere used to be more moderate, but they’ve moved off those moorings to a more raw-boned ideology that has alienated women voters. Meanwhile, men have more recently become drawn to authoritarian-styled leaders and their hard-right populism.
