"(WOMENSENEWS)--So far, unmarried women--many of whom stayed home in 2004--are engaging strongly with the primary process and showing a strong partiality for Democrats.
"What we're seeing is an incredible amount of interest in this election and an increased commitment to get involved," says Page Gardner, president of Women's Voices, Women Vote, a Washington-based group focused on spurring unmarried women to the voting booth.
Gardner says her group's research found unmarried women nationwide are the least satisfied with the direction of the country of any voting bloc.
This year's record primary turnout--New Hampshire's estimated half million votes last week numbered 100,000 more than the previous record from 2000--includes plenty of single women.

PLEASE let Edwards be the nominee!
