That’s a good point. We don’t know. It’s all just statistics.
I remember way back in 1986 — We had two women running for Governor. The MSM (that was all we had back then, FOX was just starting up and talk radio hadn’t taken off then).
The media made a huge deal — OMG!! Two women — the NAGS were glowing. When Kay Orr the Republican won, they all wen’t away and she was forgotten by the national media except to criticize and bad mouth her.
She was responsible for bringing the just starting teleservices industry to Omaha. Omaha for awhile was the telemarketing capitol of the world.
Big start up back then was First Data, Telecheck, and Ameritrade
