Elections

 The midterm elections brought landmark victories for female candidates. North country voters elected the first female sheriff in New York and the youngest female congresswoman in U.S. history. Yet even with more women than ever sitting in positions of political power, a recent study by the Girl Scouts shows that only 32 percent of girls and young women see themselves as future political leaders.

This year’s midterm election seems all about the women.
