Description

A record number of women ran in the Democratic presidential nominating contest in 2020; Senator Kamala Harris is running for Vice President; and a record number of women are running for the U.S. Congress in 2020. Yet, women are still underrepresented at every level of office, and two white men are vying for the Presidency. What explains women's gains, persistent underrepresentation, and the future for women in politics? University of Virginia Politics Professor Jennifer Lawless has published extensive research on women & politics, and she will discuss gender dynamics in the 2020 elections and women's underrepresentation. University of Minnesota Political Science Associate Professor Kathryn Pearson will moderate the discussion.
