Unmarried Americans are the fastest-growing large demographic in the country and by 2008, a majority of Americans will live with an unmarried head of household.
But despite their numbers, unmarried Americans are under-represented in national elections and their voices are not being heard in our democracy.
Women's Voices. Women Vote was created to activate unmarried Americans in their government and in our democracy.
*The growth of Unmarried America represents the biggest change in American politics in 40 years and the defining divide in politics today.
*Unmarried Women are the fastest growing major demographic group in America, with their numbers increasing at twice the rate as married women from 2000 through 2006. There are also almost 10 million more unmarried women than men.
*Whether your married is among the most powerful determinants of whether you vote, especially among women.
*Married People are much more likely than unmarried people to participate in the political process.
*Unmarried women from every background are strongly dissatisfied with the status quo.
*Unmarried women don't vote because they don't trust government and don't think they can make the politicians listen to them.
