Lead
The gender gap and the women's vote are distinct concepts. The gender gap refers to between groups differences (i.e., how men and women differ from each other in their support for a candidate). The women’s vote refers to within-groups differences (i.e., the difference in women’s support for leading party’s candidate and trailing party’s candidate). Media reports often conflate the women's vote with the gender gap, inaccurately referring to the women's vote as the gender gap.
