W4W IN THE NEWS

It's only Wednesday, and it's already been a BIG week for us!

Read up on all things Winning For Women below! Plus, check out our shoutout from Rep. Elise Stefanik!

More Women Than Ever Are Running For Office. But Are They Winning Their Primaries?

"The data suggests that groups like Elise Stefanik's EPAC and Winning For Women are off to a promising start in their attempt to bring gender diversity to the GOP. Their next big test becomes how many of these women will win in November."

Data collected from FiveThirtyEight highly suggests that support from outside groups is making a difference. To determine this, they collected information about candidates in every Senate, House and governor primary and tracked key endorsements. The graph below reflects the notion "that the win rate for women endorsed by these groups is higher than it is for women overall."

Number of Republican Women Could Increase in House but Not Senate. 

“At the end of the day, the goal is to have a Congress that reflects America. At this moment, the number of Republican women in office and the number of Republican women who are going to be up in the general [election] doesn’t reflect that.”

-Olivia Perez-Cubas, W4W Communications Director 

Supporting candidates in crucial races and increasing the number of conservative women in Congress through safe open seats is a present challenge that Republican women are facing. "Groups such as Winning For Women, VIEW PAC and Stefanik’s E-PAC are working to address primary challenges that remain."

W4W Action Fund Launches New Ads

This week, W4W Action Fund, the political arm of W4W, launched its first TV ads for November’s elections. The ads support State Senator Stephanie Bice (OK-5), who’s taking on Democratic Rep. Kendra Horn, and attack Iowa Democratic Rep. Abby Finkenauer, who’s facing off against GOP State Rep. Ashley Hinson.

We appreciate your continued to support!

Stay Safe and Healthy,
