    ISO: Single Female Voters

    Looks like unmarried women are among the “must-get” voters this election season, if efforts to get more of them to the polls are successful. That’s a big “if.”

    I have to admit, I can’t imagine not voting. Maybe that comes from being raised by parents who lived through the civil rights movement. So, I was a little surprised to learn that some 20 million unmarried women didn’t vote in 2004.

    “They are the fastest growing demographic group in this country,” said Page Gardner, president of Women’s Voices Women Vote, the group that produced the ad in the story linked to above.

    “In 2004 they were 22 percent of the electorate yet there were still 20 million unmarried women who did not vote,” she said. “If they voted in higher numbers … they could literally help determine the agenda in this country.

    Check out the rather humorous, somewhat titillating, ads produced by Women’s Voices Women Vote (WVWV). According to their mission statement and FAQ, WVWV is a non-partisan group that doesn’t endorse candidates or advocate specific issues, but just focuses on getting more unmarried women to vote.

    There’s some conventional wisdom as to which way the unmarried female demographic “breaks” politically, but the huge number of single women who abstained from voting before are something of a cipher. How they “break” if they get to the polls may depend on how successful candidates are at appealing to them.

    Single women aren’t the only group of people primed for political engagement this year. Judy Sheppard, Matthew Sheppard’s mother, is touring college campuses to encourage young people to vote. And earlier this month a study came out showing that African American youth are very politically engaged and most likely to vote regularly.

      NO VOTE for Peter Roskam (Illinois 6th Congressional District – U.S. House)

      Peter Roskam isn’t the candidate we think he is. There is a “telling” issue within his campaign that speaks directly to the type of candidate he is. . .an individual that can not directly face conflict, can not move individuals to work as a team, and can not prioritize issues over self interest. Here is the incident that supports the claims above.

      A female campaign worker, who worked for Peter in his State of Illinois office and moved to the campaign at Peter’s request, was working on an important RNC issue at campaign headquarters. Elizabeth Roskam (who I believe has aspirations of being the next Hillary Clinton) came in and redirected this person to stop everything she was doing in order to address a matter that was clearly of lesser priority, as it only concerned one individual, versus the RNC which impacted thousands. The campaign worker, who is no novice in local area politics, was taken by surprise and made an attempt to explain the project that she was working on and its importance to Mrs. Roskam. When Mrs. Roskam persisted, the campaign worker requested that she, “wanted to hear it from Peter” rather than Mrs. Roskam. At this point Elizabeth Roskam went on a tear, and berated this loyal campaign worker, who didn’t even try to make any further attempts to defend her position.

      So Elizabeth Roskam tore off and got Peter, who explained to the campaign worker that what Elizabeth says. . .goes, for she is the “co-candidate” in this campaign.

      Now the story goes on and the campaign worker, although she tries, just can not continue to work for this candidate that is “standing on the wrong principle” in order to keep peace in what appears to be a broken household. She tries to contact Peter directly to issue her resignation and work on a transition plan, however, Peter does not respond. In fact he avoided her and the entire campaign headquarters for over THREE WEEKS, just to avoid any further conflict. This campaign worker had to work through individuals in Springfield just to get a response on specific release issues that were of importance.

      To top things off, the campaign workers husband was also working within the campaign, more on the financial side, which is where his expertise lies. Shortly after his wife departed, he was asked to leave. Of course, Peter Roskam did not even have the intestinal fortitude to sit down with this individual personally and have a discussion. For it was deemed (by Elizabeth) that if one was a “traitor” they must both be “traitors”, and that is essentially the facts as I know them.

      After I listened to this story in amazement I wondered. . .what does she have on him? “Our candidate” is being controlled and does not seem capable of standing up for what is right even within his own campaign. If you notice, Elizabeth is making her presence known virtually everywhere, and I’m sure will continue to do so. For she has declared herself the co-candidate, and in her berating of that campaign worker, she was the one that likened herself to Hillary Clinton.

      While I can not in good conscience support the Duckworth campaign, what I do support is a NO VOTE for Elizabeth, oh, I mean Peter Roskam. I urge you to do the same.
