In this article it talks about how Republicans are trying to not be as brutal with each other, like they usually are, but instead they are trying to get women votes by showing compassion, and concern for women. In New Hampshire women are playing a big role, and because the majority of New Hampshire men are planning on voting for Trump, the rest of the Republican candidates are chasing after the women votes.

I think that it is a good ideal for these candidates to continue what they are doing. These women could potentially the most critical swing vote for the primary next week. I also feel that Trump should try to appeal to the women, considering four in 10 women said they would never consider voting for him and it has been said that Trump doesn't care about women, and their being equal to women.

In class we talked about how in the 19th century only property owning white men could vote and voting wasn't even an option for women until 1920. Now candidates have to put in a lot of work to get women votes and candidates need to appeal to women voters if they want to win.

  1. I think your article is really interesting and I too agree that Trump needs to make more of an effort to appeal to woman voters
