The gender gap in the US election: Will abortion rights tip the result or not?

In a special edition, we're focusing on the US presidential election, which is no doubt the most momentous election ever for American women in the nation's history with the demise of Roe v. Wade in 2022. We are also witnessing a particularly large gender voting gap, with more men leaning towards the Republicans' Donald Trump, while the Democrats’ Kamala Harris is attracting a greater number of female voters. So how will this gender gap impact voting? Is America going to have its first-ever woman president and a woman of colour at that? Or is Donald Trump and his hardline conservative views on gender equality going to get a second term in the White House with all of its implications for the future of democracy? Annette Young is joined by author, Ellen Kountz; Dan Hazelwood, a Republican strategist and Carter Sherman, the reproductive health reporter for The Guardian US.
