A survey found Rhode Island women appreciate the importance and power of voting and they are interested in local issues and races, particularly the governor’s race. Also, it stated that they want a quality education for their children, affordable health care for their families, and a secure retirement.
The Women’s Fund of Rhode Island, a nonprofit group founded in 2001 with the help of the Rhode Island Foundation, commissioned the survey, which was conducted by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner, a research and consulting firm based in Washington, D.C.
The survey asked the participants how interested they were in various races. Of likely voters, 62 percent said they were very interested in the governor’s race, compared with 57 percent who were very interested in the U.S. Senate race, 49 percent in the U.S. House of Representatives race, 37 percent in the attorney general’s race and 30 percent in the lieutenant governor’s race.
