Unmarried woman could decide this election

22 million unmarried women did not vote in the last presidential election in 2000. Several organisations want to make sure that this is not going to happen again in 2004. Among them:
Woman's Voices - Women Vote intends to dramatically increase the political participation of unmarried women through a comprehensive, nationwide voter registration and get-out-the-vote campaign.
Vote, Run, Lead aims to show 18-to-35-year-old unmarried women that instead of grumbling about being on the sidelines of the political process, they can be agents of change by running for office themselves.
Mainstreet Moms Oppose Bush is a grassroots get-out-the-vote (GOTV) initiative supporting record-breaking voter turnout against Bush/Cheney, especially among women, and particularly in the battleground states. With the countdown, its news and action letter, it aims to inform, connect and mobilize women for the 2004 election who might not otherwise consider themselves politically active.
