Traces the influences of lesbian, gay and bisexual voters in American electionsIn the half century since the Stonewall riots in New York City's Greenwich Village launched the national gayrights movement in earnest, LGB voters have steadily expanded their political influence. The Lavender Vote is the first full length examination of lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals as a factor in American elections. Mark Hertzog here describes the differences in demographics, attitudes, and voting behavior between selfidentified bisexuals and homosexuals and the rest of the voting population. He shows that lavender selfidentifiers comprise a distinctive voting bloc equal in numbers to Latino voters, more liberal across the board on domestic social issues (though not necessarily on economic or national security issues) than nongay voters, and extremely unified in highsalience elections. Further, lavender voters, contrary to popular belief, are up for grabs between the two major parties. Offering a clear and thorough explanation of LGB voting tendencies, this volume will be mustreading for elected officials, candidates for office, and all those interested in learning about LGB voters.
