Democrats on way to securing female vote in 2014

Kristi Noem (S.D.), Paul Broun (Ga.), Tom Price (Ga.), Phil Gingrey (Ga.), Jack Kingston (Ga.), Austin Scott (Ga.) and Tim Graves (Ga.)--actually vote against a bill designed to prevent violence against women? These 13 represent a majority of the 2014 potential Senate Republican candidates. Yes, the group even included former presidential candidate from Minnesota, Michele Bachmann, who barely squeaked through in 2012. Am I wrong or is she a female?
