"While the campaigns eagerly pursue female voters,
there’s something that may raise the chances for both presidential
candidates that’s totally out of their control: women’s ovulation
cycles. You read that right. New research suggests that hormones may
influence female voting choices differently, depending on whether a
woman is single or in a committed relationship. Please continue reading with caution. Although the study will be
published in the peer-reviewed journal Psychological Science, several
political scientists who read the study have expressed skepticism about
its conclusions."
CNN should have left it at that.
My fav live from the article: The study's author Kristina Durante says "When women are ovulating, they
“feel sexier,” and therefore lean more toward liberal attitudes on
abortion and marriage equality."

UPDATE: CNN pulled the story because "some elements of the story did not meet the editorial standards of CNN."
