Poll: Nearly Half Of Republican Women Wouldn't Vote For Trump
By GABBY MORRONGIELLO 3/24/16
A new survey of women voters suggests a general election contest between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton could be disastrous for the Republican Party.
Nearly half of the female Republican electorate (47 percent) currently has a difficult time imagining voting for Trump as the Republican presidential nominee, according to the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.
Far fewer say the same of Trump's two remaining opponents, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (32 percent) and Ohio Gov. John Kasich (27 percent).
Trump also has the worst favorability rating among female voters overall of any remaining Republican presidential hopeful. Seventy percent of women voters harbor negative views of the brash New York billionaire, compared to just 21 percent who view him favorably.
Moreover, the tendency among women voters to lean Democratic became even more pronounced when they were asked to consider a Trump versus Clinton matchup. In that scenario, 31 percent of women would vote for Trump, while 58 percent would choose Clinton.

These morons are rejecting the only candidate who isn’t on the payroll of the Muslim/Mexican invasion, the NWO, Soros, and the Bush Crime Family.

Trump is an alpha-male, the protector of women.
Why would women dislike him?
According to the poll 30%of Republican women will not vote Republican. Really?
Pray America wakes
>>> If only donald had a vagina...<<<
It would be HUGE and Mexico would pay for it.
How many republican worn voted for Romney?
Of course to even post such information on the problematic position of Trump in some voters mind, is apostasy, as evidenced by whomever resorts to flooding the FR keyword box will all kinds of sarcastic tags. This often, even for straight news stories. Some people seem to even be incapable of handling reality when it tarnishes their Golden Calf. Bizarro.
Man, that is FUNNY...
I find personally, that Republican women, first of all, just by the fact that they are Republican are thinking women.
They develop an opinion, they examine evidence, they do not live by 10 second soundbytes, and are not affected by Rushbo, or the other talking heads, rather, they listen, and they investigate.
Within all statements are an element of truth. Some believe the entire spiel, but the thinkers learn the truth.
I have a lot of confidence in Smart Republican women.
That does not mean they will all vote for Trump, but they will vote. And Republican men, will appreciate and love them regardless of who they vote for, don’t you think?
IMO Trump will win, with or without 43%, I suspect however that the number will be much smaller in the end.
He does and her name is Ted Cruz.
Every day more and more people come over to trump.
“Ha!! These establishment polls dont speak for me. “
Me neither, what a bunch of carp.
” At the end of the day who cares...if what someone says about you informs you of who you are....go get professional help.”
Yeah, and switch parties too.
I just can’t figure out why Trump is leading in delegates by a lot when all these different groups won’t vote for him, it’s really perplexing.
Sigh
At first I saw him as a politically naive America first guy who is out to put the brakes on the corruption in DC and end the corruption. Now I don't know what the hell he has up his sleeve.
He's had some sharp cookies craft position statements for him on his website, but it doesn't seem he's bothered to read them because his answers fall short of knowledgeable. He plays off people's anger and dislike for the beltway, but rather than address the issues making us angry he prefers to brawl with profanity and slander as his chosen weapons knowing the media is willing to get right down in the gutter with him.
This is like a frat house party that is getting out of control and with a new keg or two on the way somebody's about to get their asses kicked, someone is likely to get raped and the chances of a couple cars getting wrapped around trees are higher than not.
I wouldn't mind seeing Trump come up short in the delegate count causing a brokered convention in which I believe Cruz would prevail. Subsequent to that, I'd like to see a Cruz/Gingrich ticket.
But alas. I think it's looking better for Hillary every day.
“It would be HUGE and Mexico would pay for it.”
LOL
Now let’s be factual.
If Melania wants to pose seductively nude in the spreadsheets of GQ magazine and rake in a seven figure paycheck, all for men to leer at her, and then a superPAC that Cruz does not control as everyone acknowledges, informs Utah voters of what a “First Lady Tramp” might be, you have your Dear Leader go after Cruz’s wife for a mental depression.
This guy is a vulgarian and has no right to be on a presidential forum.
You’d never know it looking at his audiences and voting lines. I call B.S. on this poll.
Yep. At this point all they notice is the brashness, the alpha male chest thumping. But when it comes down to actual voting, Republican women will do what they always do — compare their choices based on economy, security, family, and trustworthiness.
I’ve got to like a Trump’s odds in a comparison to Clinton when it comes down to those things Republican women always care about.
My common sense tells me Trump has enjoyed a preference cascade that put him from somebody nobody would take seriously to somebody a lot of people champion, and I think it likely he will have another preference cascade in the general election as more people come to realize he does not have red horns and a pitch fork, and win very big. He has miles of more charisma than Hilary, and it will likely be painfully obvious in the debate. Plus he knows how to persuade people and use media better than she does.
As Trump's critics have noticed in their frustration, no matter how shrill their criticism of Trump gets, his followers are not swayed. Balancing this against a statistic where 47% of Republican women are not sure they can see themselves voting for Trump vs 32 percent for Cruz is balancing something solid agains something very mutable.
