Part III: LGBTQ Women as a Force for Progressive Change

September 2020

2

Research Parts I & II Recap

• In July, Project LPAC and Lake Research Partners presented Part I of the research in a

webinar focused on LGBTQ women as an electorate, exploring three distinct groups:

• 1. Non-registered voters (19% of LGBTQ women)
• 2. Registered, committed Biden voters (55% of LGBTQ women)
• 3. Registered, non-committed voters (14% of LGBTQ women)
• In August, a second webinar was held presenting Part II, which focused on differences

between LGBTQ women and straight women.

• LGBTQ women are more enthusiastic, Democratically oriented, and on the side of

progressive issues than straight women.

• In many issue areas, LGBTQ women and straight women of color have views that are

more likely to align than the views of LGBTQ women and straight white women.

3

Methodology – Survey

• Lake Research Partners designed and administered this survey that was conducted online from June 6 – 14, 2020. The survey reached

a total of 1,653 survey respondents, including 1,025 LGBTQ women, 400 straight women, and 228 transgender women and non-binary adults.

• The survey results were weighted to 800 LGBTQ women, with oversamples of 100 Black LGBTQ women, 100 Latina LGBTQ women, 200

transgender women and nonbinary adults, 200 straight women, 100 Black straight women, and 100 Latina straight women.

• The LGBTQ women base sample was weighted by age, educational attainment, and race. The Black LGBTQ women sample was

weighted by age and party identification. The Latina LGBTQ oversample was weighted by age and party identification. White LGBTQ women were weighted by party identification. The Black and Latina LGBTQ women oversamples were weighted down into the base LGBTQ women sample to reflect their actual proportion of LGBTQ women nationwide.

• The transgender and nonbinary oversample was weighted slightly by gender, educational attainment, and race. The nonbinary adults
• versample was weighted by age and race.
• The straight women oversample was weighted by age, region, educational attainment, race, and party identification. The Latina

straight women oversample was weighted by region, educational attainment, and party identification. The Black straight women

• versample was weighted by age, educational attainment, and party identification. The Black and Latina straight women oversamples

were weighted down into the straight women sample to reflect their actual proportion of straight women nationwide.

• The margin of error for the base LGBTQ women sample is +/- 3.5%. The margin of error for the straight women oversample and the

transgender women and nonbinary adults oversample is +/- 6.9%.

Part III: Key Findings

5

Summary – LGBTQ Women as a Progressive Force

• LGBTQ women are a strongly progressive cohort, reliably Democratic, and engaged with

the issues the country faces today.

• They want to see the government take action to address the issues the country faces due

to coronavirus, want to ensure everyone has access to healthcare, and want leaders to address racism and systematic injustice.

• They are tuned into LGBTQ issues, they think LGBTQ representation at all levels is

important, and they care about candidate’s voting records on LGBTQ issues.

• LGBTQ women play a critical role in civic participation, and with their level of engagement
• n progressive issues, make excellent advocates, volunteers, donors, activists, and voters.
• LGBTQ women are not a monolith, they have different issue priorities and these often

differ by age and race.

The 2020 Election

7

Looking at only registered, likely voters, LGBTQ women are 20-points more likely than straight women to support Biden and 23-points less likely to support Trump. Trans women and nonbinary adults are similarly supportive.

If the 2020 election for President were held today, would you vote for: [ROTATE] Republican Donald Trump, Democrat Joe Biden, or are you undecided, voting for someone else, or not going to vote?

Vote motivation correlates with registration. Eight-in-ten LGBTQ women

who are Biden voters say they are motivated. Registered, non-committed LGBTQ women voters are less motivated to vote.

Some people feel very motivated to vote in this November election while others don't feel motivated at all, and many are in between. How about you--how motivated are you to vote in November?

While no group thinks Trump is better on LGBTQ issues, nearly 9-in-10 LGBTQ women who are non- committed registered voters see no difference between Biden and Trump. Demographically, the LGBTQ women who are most likely to say neither candidate is better are Latinas, LGBTQ women under 50, non- college grads, Independents and Republicans, and suburban women.

Which candidate, if any, do you believe is better on LGBTQ issues?

LGBTQ women and transgender women and nonbinary adults are more likely than straight women to say they will vote by mail in November. Straight women split between voting by mail and voting in person.

A majority of those surveyed say they have enough information on how to vote by mail. That said, over a quarter of LGBTQ women and straight women say they need more information about how to apply and vote by mail. Transgender women and nonbinary adults are more likely to need more information, with nearly a third who say so.

A majority of LGBTQ women agree that the LGBTQ movement and LGBTQ advocacy

strongly agree. This suggests LGBTQ organizations and advocates have work to do to make sure they are seen to explicitly represent women.

LGBTQ women are most concerned about racism, followed by healthcare. Given the survey fielded amidst a pandemic and movement for racial justice, this shows LGBTQ women are involved with current events. In our 2019 research*, the top issue for LGBTQ women was healthcare and prescription drug prices (30%), LGBTQ equality (26%), the environment and climate change (26%), and gun control (23%). Racism was only the top issue for 10% of LGBTQ women.

Now, you will see a list of concerns that some people have mentioned. Please indicate which one or two you think are the most important issues for elected officials to address,

LGBTQ Issues and Representation

When choosing who to vote for in a federal election, the candidate’s voting record on LGBTQ issues is important to LGBTQ women. Black and Latina women are most likely to say it is important, and Latina women are most likely to say it is very important.
