Nearly a quarter of the voters in Tuesday’s election were unmarried women - and Obama captured more than two-thirds of their votes, 67 per cent, according to research released by the Women’s Voices Women Vote Action Fund. New research reveals Barack Obama owes his re-election victory to the unmarried women who turned out in their millions to vote for him. WASHINGTON: Beyonce was right: it was all the single ladies who put their hands up.
