Oshri, Kedar & Hazan. 'Voting for Equality: The Gender gap in Voting in the 2013 Israeli Elections.' In this paper, we demonstrate that Israeli women’s positions are more hawkish compared to men’s, yet women support left-leaning parties at higher rates. We address this paradox based on the weight (salience) of a voter’s position regarding a specific issue in determining his or her voting decision. We demonstrate that the position on issues related to foreign affairs is equally important in the voting behavior of both men and women. By contrast, the position on domestic/economic policies has a stronger influence on women’s voting choices than on men’s.
