"Just before the third debate we observed that many Americans were experiencing severe election-related sleep problems. We're happy to report sleep problems are down by 30% five days before Election Day," says Jack Woollings, Marketing Manager of Novosbed.com. "But, it's lopsided - survey data shows that women and undecided voters still aren't sleeping as well as their male and minds-made-up compatriots."
Of the XYZ voting-aged Americans surveyed, 25% of women and 40% of undecided voters still reported major sleep disturbance. The survey suggests there's worse to come, with 25% of respondents expecting to lose sleep if their candidate loses the election.
