Women and elections :Do they run? Do they win? Does it matter?
Lawless, Jennifer Leigh.
Women and elections :
Do they run? Do they win? Does it matter? [electronic resource] - 137 p.
Adviser: Morris P. Fiorina.
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Stanford University, 2003.
In terms of objective qualifications and professional credentials for a political candidacy, women are becoming increasingly well positioned. Over the course of the last two decades, women have also been as successful as their male counterparts when it comes to fundraising success and winning elections. And men and women appear equally able to represent women's substantive interests. These circumstances lead many political scientists to ask whether continuing to study the role gender plays in U.S. elections and representation results in a somewhat stagnant research agenda. Using three data sets, an eclectic array of theoretical approaches, and creative methodological tools, the three essays that comprise this dissertation offer a more nuanced examination of gender's role in political ambition, electoral success, and representation. Three basic findings emerge from the analyses: women are less likely to run for office, despite their qualifications and credentials; women may be less likely than their male counterparts to win elections for high-level office for the foreseeable future, despite their previous success; and women's presence in Congress legitimizes the polity for female constituents, despite the fact that both women and men can legislate on behalf of women's policy preferences and priorities. The use of original research strategies, new national sample surveys, and theoretically warranted control variables culminate to provide evidence that the "conventional wisdom"---that is, gender's increasing irrelevance in the political sphere---is over-stated and mistakenly optimistic.
