It happened in Argentina last week where the 2 presidential candidates who finished first and second were both women and between them they got 70% of the general vote. I can´t think of another example in a democratic PRESIDENTIAL election where women were voted so massively because usually when a country elects a woman for president, the candidate who finishes second is always a man.
Do you know of any examples where this hasn't been the case? Thank you for your answers.

Margaret Thatcher was never voted by 70% of the british population.
And I'm not sure she was a woman either...
