October 25, 2019: Given a choice between a candidate who shares their views on most issues or a candidate who shares their gender, 17% of voters would vote for the candidate of their gender.[1]
A ScottRasmussen.com national survey found that men are more likely than women to prioritize gender over issues.
Specifically, 22% of men would vote for a man they disagreed with on most issues rather than a woman they agreed with on most issues.
Given the mirror image of that same trade-off, just 12% of women would vote for the female candidate they disagreed with.
