yes the question
請提問
the gender vote had shrunk in 2004
04年兩性的投票差異縮小了
which was interesting from 2000 to 2004, almost disappeared
從00年到04年這種差異幾乎消失不見了
and there was a question over how much it had to do with soccer moms becoming security moms
其中一個問題就是 這是不是與關注孩子健康的母親 變得更關注國家安全有關
some analysts have said that it was almost entirely a southern phenomenon
有人說這種變化幾乎只出現在美國南部
if you get to the south that did change that much
如果你去南部會發現的確有些變化
it grew again this election
性別差異在這次選舉中再次凸顯
Obama did much better among women than among men
奧巴馬在女性選民中的支持率遠高于男性選民
in general you find men are more concerned about the security issues than women are more inclined to vote Republican because of those issues
總體而言 男性比女性更加關心國家安全等問題 因此他們更加傾向于支持共和黨
does anyone know the actual figures
有人知道具體的數據嗎?
male versus female voting?
男性和女性選民的支持率?
so it was almost evenly split with men whereas women Obama won by pretty substantial
男性中支持雙方的各一半 而女性選民中奧巴馬則遙遙領先
so that's a big gender gap
可見性別差異很大
I don't know how it would compare to some of the earlier ones, certainly much bigger than 2004
我不知道這次的選情和之前幾屆大選有多大區別 但今年的差異絕對遠高于04年
so a good question
這是個很好的問題
thanks for bringing that up
謝謝你的補充
