Half of U.S. women have 'very unfavorable' view of Trump: poll

Half of U.S. women say they have a "very unfavorable" view of the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, according to Reuters/Ipsos polling, up from the 40 percent who felt that way in October. The survey was taken from March 1-15, and included 5,400 respondents.

The rise in anti-Trump sentiment among women could pose a problem for the New York billionaire in his quest for the White House. Women form just over half of the U.S. population, and they have turned out at higher rates than men in every election since 1996, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

Only George Washington was ever elected unanimously by the Electoral College. It's thought that they would choose to continue that tradition in the (unlikely) event of a unanimous Electoral College win today. One willing elector would abstain, making the vote 537-0-1 today, to maintain Washington's legacy of the only unanimously-elected President.

Besides there were fewer electoral votes back then and political parties weren't a major part yet.
