Moving Beyond the Good Ol’ Boys Club: Recent Trends in Women’s Representation in State Legislatures By Carah Ong Whaley
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE
— The percentage of women in state legislatures has increased in recent years. However, there is still a significant gender gap in most states as women have not reached parity in representation.

— The percentage of women in state legislatures has increased more in Western and Northeastern states than in Midwestern and Southern states. This is likely due to a number of factors, including the political climate, the level of motivation and activism among women, and the availability of resources for women’s campaigns.
