Verso il 2012: la lunga marcia delle donne americane

La senatrice democratica Kirsten Gillibrand ha avviato una campagna (“Off the Sidelines”) per sensibilizzare alla politica le donne statunitensi, spingendole a farsi avanti in vista delle elezioni del prossimo anno.

In the past few months, Ms. Gillibrand activated her network of donors to help female candidates, emerged as a headliner among audiences of women, tried to recruit female candidates, advised women thinking about running, and started a Web site, offthesidelines.org. Her efforts were most recently on display during a special election in May to fill an open House seat in New York’s 26th District, one of the most conservative regions of the state, where the Democrats faced an uphill battle.
