Planned Parenthood action fund to spend $3.2 million to “influence” female voters in Ohio and Virginia
Gallup is reporting that when it comes to male voters, Romney leads Obama by eight percentage points. But when it comes to female voters, Obama leads Romney by eight points.

The director of national organizing and electoral campaigns at Planned Parenthood Action Fund, Deirdre Schifeling, explains:
We have purchased ad time in northern Virginia, in Columbus, Ohio, and Toledo, Ohio, because they have high concentrations of undecided voters or swing voters.
We’re going to layer that with mail, phone, door-to-door canvassing and a significant online buy.
We are very focused also on swing women likely voters.
The Obama campaign also announced a “Romney/Ryan: Wrong For Women” tour, which started Saturday in Las Vegas.
