October 1, 2019
11:45 AM – 1:00 PM

Tracy Osborn will present her research, which asks whether the proliferation of groups that recruit women candidates, or “women candidate groups,” increases women’s representation in political office.  Dr. Osborn will present results from a survey of groups in 2018.  This survey highlights the array of challenges facing groups who want to bring more women to office.

Lunch will be provided at 11:45, presentation will begin at noon. If you plan to attend, please contact leslie-gannon@uiowa.edu by September 27, and please note any dietary restrictions.
