The book explores the underrepresentation of women in state legislatures, highlighting the role of political party elites as a significant barrier to women's candidacies. Through surveys of county party chairs and potential female candidates, it reveals that most women perceive discrimination from their parties, which contributes to their limited participation in politics. This study sheds light on the systemic issues within political parties that hinder women's electoral success, emphasizing the need for reform to foster greater inclusivity in political representation.
