Towards electing women for the achievement of Equal Representation -- in a country where women hold a measly 23.7% of all seats in the U.S. Congress, well below the 30 percent benchmark set by the U.N. and chronically about 90th in the world for electing women (if you count the ties)...We are going to call it like it is and let the chips fall where they may!
This is a great idea. Interestingly, of the DFA candidates who won, 20 are women and 13 men! Keep in touch, and, yes, we will have an outreach like this at the DNC.
