If #women were the only ones who voted, races that are closely contested now would turn into #Democratic blowouts, today’s safe #Republican seats would turn into toss-ups, and Democrats would win the House popular vote nearly every time.

If Democrats win the 2018 #midterms, it will almost certainly be because of the strong support they get from women. // Illustration by @tran.tutovan via @fivethirtyeight
