This Poster Session will be a curriculum unit in which students learn more about how women have made some political gains in running and holding political office. However, women still do not run for office nearly as much as men do, and there is still a gap in their holding of offices. This unit will give students the chance to see and understand why there is a gap between women and men holding political offices from the local to the federal levels and how this gap could be closed.
