It could just be that whatever sex shows up to the polls on election day could turn out to choose whose Iowa's electoral votes will go to. Iowa has been seeing a major gender gap between candidates with women favoring Obama by 13 points and Obama losing with 6 points to male voters according to the Des Moines Register. Men are more concerned with the economy and the deficit and Romney's comprehensive plan seems to address their concerns, while women are concerned with health care and believe Obama is more qualified to handle their needs.
The fact that women in Iowa are more in favor of Obama could be the reason that he is leading the polls by about 4 points. But the race is still a toss up, and in 32 days a lot can happen.
Iowa's votes can literally be decided by either men or women.
