SheSpeaks Spring Survey Results

The 2024 Presidential Election is around the corner. Over the last several months, we asked you, our SheSpeaks community members, to weigh in on the issues that will impact voting in November.  Over 1,200 SheSpeaks community members took our “May Women’s State of Mind” survey, and following are some of the insights you shared.  Where relevant, we have shared comparison data from our early April study.

A whopping 78% of women say that the country is headed in the WRONG direction. This is up from 75% in early April.

Additionally, 55% of women believe that the economy is getting worse, given price increases on everyday items such as groceries and gas. This is up from 51% from our prior survey.

Women say that the top three issues that will impact their voting in November are:
#1: The Economy (55%)
#2: Healthcare (48%)
#3: Reproductive/Abortion Rights (47%)

Worth noting is that since early April women have changed their minds about who they think will win the Presidential election. In early April, 43% of women believed that President Biden would win reelection in November (40% said that Donald Trump would win). Now, 44% of women believe that Donald Trump will win the election in November.

Finally, women are not satisfied with the two major candidates for President in the 2024 election. 74% of women surveyed said that they would like to replace President Biden with a different candidate for President. And 71% of women would like replace Donald Trump with a different candidate.

What do you think of these results? Do they surprise you?

The economy is in a scary spot right now. Things are so astronomically high it's getting difficult to live. After watching the debate I didn't appreciate one of the candidates saying they speak for all women. Nobody speaks for me except me.

It really infuriates me that "reproductive rights" is an issue for women because we know it's not really reproductive rights that women are concerned about. The reality is it's abortion rights that's the issue. Abortion should only be used when the fetus has no chance in surviving and the mother is at risk. It should not be used because of someone being irresponsible. It's not birth control, it is terminating a life. I really feel that any woman fighting for the right to be able to end another life is less than a woman. I'm sorry but if you have no problem ending your own child's life, than you could really care less about anyone else's. That makes you a liability and an untrustworthy person.

This information really doesn't surprise me. We all know that prices have been skyrocketing on everything! The economy affects people's everyday life, and right now it seems like even with two people working it is hard to afford groceries, gas and the mortgage! I also think the majority of people want two new presidential candidates, for various reasons. I do think we need a fresh start with new presidential candidates!

I think the Economy is number one one the issue. It is the most important thing in order for it to prosper. Next, I think that Health Care would be very important, especially die to the rising cost and the total need for Health Care. There are a lot of people who can't afford, and the Health Care issue is extemely important. Business, though, has a tendency to fluctuate with spending. Industry, though, is needed, but goes up and down with spending. As, for the election, I think President Biden will win. He has done a tremendoous job, with the economy like it is. We need industry of some kind, to keep the other businesses going.

I believe Trump will be our next president. Presidents are not elected they are selected. Our world right now is being run by evil demons. We are in a war of of of good over evil right now
