I answered Colorado.
In 2008, the state was a Democratic pickup and President Obama won women with 56 percent of the vote while nabbing 49 percent of men. (John McCain received 41 percent of women in 2008, and he garnered 50 percent of men.)
In 2012, there was no gender gap as Obama carried Colo. with 51 percent of women and men. The female support decline, but he won over men.
I have to think he would not have won over men, as well as women, had it not been for Hispanics. (And they were a substantial increase in 2012 Colorado.)
