Hillary Clinton is the early frontrunner for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination, and the good news for her is that voters remain overwhelmingly willing to vote for a woman for president. They’re not so sure about their family, friends and co-workers, though.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 77% of Likely U.S. Voters think it is at least somewhat likely that a woman will be elected president in the next 10 years. That’s up from 60% in December 2006 when Mrs. Clinton was also the frontrunner for her party’s 2008 presidential nomination. Just 18% consider it unlikely a woman will be elected president in the next decade. This includes 37% who say it’s Very Likely and only four percent (4%) who think it’s Not At All Likely.
