We often talk about the lack of adequate representation of women as elected officials at all levels of government. We know the numbers, but the only way to change this disparity is to run for office. This year we are seeing a record number of women running to be the mayors of their cities across Indiana. Women are recognizing they have all of the necessary skills to lead their communities and they are shaking off the notion they aren't ready. When we show up, we can win.
