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.
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?
Come meet Los Angeles City Controller Wendy Greuel, candidate for Los Angeles Mayor, at the Get Out the Vote event to elect the first woman Mayor of Los Angeles.
The event will be Saturday, March 2, 2013 from 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM.

Hometown Hero: The California List and Bettina Duval
by Susan Cloke
Bettina Duval started the CALIFORNIA LIST (californialist.org) in April 2002. Her mission: to create opportunities for women to run for public office and the election of pro-choice, democratic women to the California State Senate, Assembly, and Executive Branch.
What an election! It was a definitely a good election for women nationally.
The number of women in the US Congress and US Senate increased! A record of 20 women will serve in the Senate (4 Republicans, 16 Democrats). In Congress the number of women will also increase including two more from own state legislature. Congratulations to California State Senator Gloria Negrete McLeod and State Assemblywoman Julia Brownley for their respective wins and will be joining at least 78 women in Congress (some races are still awaiting final results). article continues...
As we are all well aware, election season is upon us. As campaigns intensify, everyone is increasingly courting the women’s vote. Why? Because women now comprise the largest voting block in America. Yet with all this focus on the female vote, public office is still disproportionately filled by men, with women holding less than 24% of California’s elected seats. article continues...
The primary election was held yesterday, June 5, here in California, and CALIFORNIALIST worked hard to support the pro-choice, Democratic women running for statewide offices. With the open primary and redistricting, the outcome for our women candidates was anyone’s guess. article continues...
