Few Women Hold Public Office, Says Federation Leader
Miss Charl Ormond Williams, president of the National Federation of Business and Professional Women's clubs, notes only a handful of women hold public office out of 50,000 posts. She cites five women in the House, none in the Senate or as governor, and calls local and county politics the likeliest path. States like New Mexico, Iowa, Oregon, Indiana, New Jersey, Massachusetts, New York and others elected women to various offices, with New Hampshire and New York seeing several state and local gains. Kansas reportedly elected the most women to local office, though exact figures were not provided.
