Winning in Sochi and Sacramento

Published February 21, 2014 | By Bettina Duval, Founder, CALIFORNIALIST

Watching the Olympics I am reminded that running for office is like being a professional athlete. It takes training, financial support and dedication to run, but in the end it all comes down to one race, one day.

CALILFORNIALIST is dedicated to giving pro-choice, Democratic women the training and support to run a competitive race and finish first on Election Day.

We have endorsed four excellent candidates in their 2014 bid for Assembly:

  • Elizabeth Echols is the leading contender for the Assembly in District 15 (Berkeley, Oakland). This seat is currently held by Nancy Skinner, who will be termed out this year. Elizabeth trained with EMERGE, and she is well prepared to win.

Resolutions for 2014

Published January 29, 2014 | By Bettina Duval, Founder, CALIFORNIALIST

The New Year always feels like a fresh start – new goals, new ideas, and a desire to aim higher and achieve more. You may have made a New Year’s resolution. We’ve made four:

1. Grow our political fundraising network to support Democratic women running for State legislature in California.
2. Partner with other women’s organizations to recruit women candidates for 2016.
3. Connect a network of male and female leaders and political organizations to support qualified female candidates.
4. Ask every woman in California to look at herself and her network, identify a potential leader and ask her to run.

Time Magazine Article

Published October 23, 2013 | By admin

With the recent partial government shut down by the Republican male leadership, many are wondering how things would be different if women ran the world. 

Excellent food for thought comes from the Time magazine article that ran this week titled “Women Are the Only Adults Left in Washington.” Read the full text of the article online here: http://swampland.time.com/2013/10/16/women-are-the-only-adults-left-in-washington.

Game On! Election Madness

Published April 9, 2013 | By Bettina Duval, Founder, CALIFORNIALIST

This month we are celebrating our 11th anniversary. CALIFORNIALIST is proud of the work we have accomplished. We have identified, trained and supported Democratic women in our efforts to build a pipeline of female leaders. Since our inception, seven formerly endorsed CALIFORNIALIST candidates have beat the odds and gone on to serve in Congress. It’s on the local level and in our State legislature where we build a farm team for future leaders.

We are currently planning for the 2014 election and there is an alarming trend: women are not running for office. How can we continue to build our ultimate dream team and make it to the final four without any players?
