Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

DURING 2022 ONE NEW RESEARCH PROJECT WAS PUBLISHED BY THE BARBARA LEE FAMILY FOUNDATION:"SHARED HURDLES; HOW POLITICAL RACES CHANGE WHEN TWO WOMEN COMPETE" IS NONPARTISAN RESEARCH THAT SHOWS THAT GENDER BIASES AGAINST WOMEN POLITICIANS DO NOT DISAPPEAR NOR DO THEY CANCEL OUT WHEN BOTH CANDIDATE ARE WOMEN. THIS RESEARCH REVEALS HOW CANDIDATES' RACE, POLITICAL PARTY AND GENDER INTERACT TO INFLUENCE VOTER OPINION WHEN MORE THAN ONE WOMAN IS ON THE BALLOT. THIS REPORT OFFERS A CRITICAL NEW DIMENSION AND A KEY UPDATE TO OUR UNDERSTANDING OF GENDER DYNAMICS IN POLITICS. IT LAYS THE FRAMEWORK FOR HOW WOMEN CANDIDATES CAN GO THE DISTANCE WHEN COMPETING AGAINST OTHER WOMEN FOR THE SAME POSITION.
