Dear Republicans: You spoke. Women listened. No Senate for you.

The gender gap in Senate exit polls was pronounced, with men voting for the Republican in almost all close Senate races. The largest gender gap was in Massachusetts (24 points), followed by Connecticut (21 points). Composition of new Senate:
If women had the same voting preferences as men in the Senate races, Democrats would only hold 39-41 seats - and the Vice President wouldn't be a Democrat either. Update: The gender gap generally increased in 2012 compared to 2008 or 2004.
The gender gap for Senate races increased compared to previous presidential election years in 2004 and 2008. Republicans need say no more.
