There are a number of issues that are not at the forefront during this election cycle and Amanda needs some clarification, so she’s starting with something near and dear: women AND politics. Amanda had the opportunity to sit down with Christina Reynolds, Vice President of Communications at EMILY’s List and find out:

What goes into running for office? Why the disparity of female representation? What is the female vote? Why does it matter what ethnicity is voting? How do we get women on the same page with so many differing views? 

Christina encourages women to hold people in power accountable and highlights the positive effects of social media.
