To determine which generalization is most accurate based on the provided table, let's analyze each statement step-by-step:
1. Women are more likely than men to support Democrats (Obama).
- According to the table, 53% of Women support Obama, while only 42% of Men support Obama.
- Therefore, Women are more likely than Men to support Democrats (Obama).
2. Women are more likely than men to support Republicans (Romney).
- According to the table, 43% of Women support Romney, while 52% of Men support Romney.
- Therefore, Women are less likely than Men to support Republicans (Romney), making this statement false.
3. Men voted in higher numbers than women.
- The table provides the percentage of Men and Women supporting each candidate, but it does not provide the overall number of voters. Therefore, this generalization cannot be accurately assessed based solely on the given data.
4. Men are more likely than women to support Democrats (Obama).
- As mentioned, 42% of Men support Obama compared to 53% of Women.
- Therefore, Men are less likely than Women to support Democrats (Obama), making this statement false.
Based on the analysis above, the most accurate generalization is:
- Women are more likely than men to support Democrats (Obama).
Thus, the correct answer is: 1.
